Abstract

Migraine headache is a debilitating disorder that affects millions of people in the United States and worldwide. Migraine management encompasses specific and nonspecific migraine therapeutics, including non opioid and opioid analgesics, triptans, and ergotamine's. There are many reasons why people cannot use drugs to treat their migraines as they may have trouble tolerating them, want to avoid their side effects, are allergic to them, are non-compliant, pregnant, or have some underlying medical condition that might worsen. Cefaly® happens to be pioneering electrotherapeutic device for effective treatment of migraine and has acquired ISO certification for the same.
