Headaches, Migraines, Anxiety, Head Pain Relief,  Depression:   Here's a list of the Top 5 RX Drugs commonly prescribed for Anxiety:    


1. Antidepressants.  Ans:  Yes,  These work for chronic head pain - Headaches - Migraines though they can be costly and require continual appointments. Numerous adverse side effects have been reported so proceed carefully but often it is worth it for many... Tricyclic antidepressants such as nortriptyline (Pamelor)  is often used to treat chronic headaches. 

These medications can also help treat the depression, anxiety and sleep disturbances that often accompany chronic daily headaches.

Other antidepressants, such as the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) fluoxetine (Prozac, Sarafem, others), might help in treating depression and anxiety, but have not been shown to be more effective than placebo for headaches.

2. Beta blockers.  Ans. RX Drugs do work for some.  Finding the right Beta blocker requires time, patience,  cost, and continual appointments but is worth the effort for some. See your Physician. Beta Blockers are good particularly for those with hypertension.  These drugs, commonly used to treat high blood pressure, are also a mainstay for preventing episodic migraines. These include atenolol (Tenormin), metoprolol (Lopressor, Toprol-XL) and propranolol (Inderal, Innopran XL).       

3. Anti-seizure medications.  Ans. RX Drugs do work for some.  Finding the right drug requires time, patience,  cost, and continual appointments but is worth the effort for some. See your Physician if you want to pursue this course of relief. Some anti-seizure drugs seem to prevent migraines and might be used to prevent chronic daily headaches, as well. Options include topiramate (Topamax, Qudexy XR, others), divalproex sodium (Depakote) and gabapentin (Neurontin, Gralise).

4. NSAIDs. Ans. RX Drugs do work for some.  Finding the right drug requires time, patience,  cost, and continual appointments but is worth the effort for some. See your Physician if you want to pursue this course of relief. Prescription nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs — such as naproxen sodium (Anaprox, Naprelan) — might be helpful, especially if you're withdrawing from other pain relievers. They can also be used periodically when the headache is more severe.

5. Botulinum toxin. Ans.  This is a novel use of Botox and for many have helped with resistant, chronic headaches.  Easy enough to do but is costly and lasts 3 - 4 months with diminishing effectiveness over time. OnabotulinumtoxinA (Botox) injections provide relief for some people and might be a viable option for people who don't tolerate daily medication well. Botox would most likely be considered if the headaches have features of chronic migraines.

Headaches and Migraines natural cures:  Here's a list of the TOP 7 Natural Cures for headaches and migraines  

For many people, while complementary or alternative therapies may offer relief from headache pain, it's important to listen to your own body and judge for yourself. Here's a list of 7 anecdotal, natural, alternative cures for headache / head pain relief. 


1. Acupuncture. This ancient technique uses hair-thin needles inserted into several areas of your skin at defined points. While the results are mixed, some studies have shown that acupuncture helps reduce the frequency and intensity of chronic headaches.

2. Biofeedback. You might be able to control headaches by becoming more aware of and then changing certain bodily responses, such as muscle tension, heart rate and skin temperature.

3. Massage. Massage can reduce stress, relieve pain and promote relaxation. Although its value as a headache treatment hasn't been determined, massage might be particularly helpful if you have tight muscles in the back of your head, neck and shoulders.

4. Herbs, vitamins and minerals. 

Some evidence exists that the herbs feverfew, Valerian root, and butterbur help prevent migraines or reduce their severity. A high dose of vitamin B-2 (riboflavin) also might reduce migraines.

Coenzyme Q10 supplements might be helpful in some individuals. And oral magnesium sulfate supplements might reduce the frequency of headaches in some people, although studies don't all agree. Ask your doctor if these treatments are right for you.

Don't use riboflavin, feverfew or butterbur if you're pregnant.

5. Electrical stimulation of the occipital nerve. A small battery-powered electrode is surgically implanted near the occipital nerve at the base of your neck. The electrode sends continuous energy pulses to the nerve to ease pain. This approach is considered investigational.

6. Daily Exercise, Eat well, Yoga,  Mindful Breathing, .  Good habits for all as these are the mainstays of basic health and wellness and may help lessen the occurrence and severity of headaches for some.    

7. Chiropractors. .   Chiropractors, as part of your healthcare team, can sometimes help if you are suffering from headaches.  A common cause of tension headaches is subluxations of the neck and upper back which may be effectively treated with chiropractic adjustments


Alert:  Rebound headaches and over medicating when using RX and OTC Drugs

People who are very prone to having headaches may develop a pattern of daily or almost-daily headaches. In some people,  migraine-type headache episodes may become so frequent that they finally blend together with no clear-cut beginning or end. In most of these cases, the development of more severe or frequent headaches may actually be caused from taking headache relief medications too frequently.

Daily use of over-the-counter medications such as aspirin, acetaminophen, ibuprofen, narcotics, barbiturates and caffeine-containing medications; or RX prescription medications, appear to interfere with the brain centers that regulate the flow of pain messages to the nervous system and may sometimes make your headache worse.  In addition,  over medicating over weeks may reduce with the effectiveness of prescribed preventive medication. 

Rebound headaches are often the result of overuse of meds and as the last dose wears off,  pain ensues prompting you to continually take more and more medication, sooner and sooner.  This adverse med cycle leads many to explore more natural, long lasting methods.
