Global Practice Guidelines for Migraine Treatment

The International Headache Society developed comprehensive practice guidelines for the treatment of migraines, taking into account the global variability in medication availability. These recommendations are structured into two levels: optimal and essential, aiming to provide evidence-based guidance while ensuring accessibility for healthcare providers worldwide. For instance, the optimal level suggests advanced pharmacological treatments, while the essential level includes options based on expert opinion for areas with less medication availability. This approach allows for a more inclusive set of recommendations applicable in diverse clinical settings.
