Treatment for Cluster Headache

Verapamil, a L-type calcium channel blocker, is used off-label for Cluster Headache management by reducing neurogenic inflammation and modulating calcium-dependent neurotransmitter release in the trigeminal and hypothalamic regions. Its primary mechanism involves stabilizing neuronal membranes and decreasing the frequency and intensity of cluster headache attacks by suppressing neuronal excitability and vasodilation.
