What works for migraine

Recent advances in clinical research and basic neuroscience are improving our understanding of migraine and are delivering new treatments, says Goadsby on p 25. Though the future seems positive, some unmet needs remain, such as new preventive therapies, treatments for non-vascular acute attack, and new strategies to manage patients with intractable migraine. This clinical review summarises developments in diagnosis, classification, pathophysiological understanding, and treatment strategies for migraine, and discusses strengths and weaknesses of current research.
