Treatment for Cluster Headache

A combination analgesic for cluster headache typically includes a rapid-acting triptan (such as sumatriptan) and a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) like naproxen. Sumatriptan acts as a selective serotonin receptor agonist that constricts cranial blood vessels and inhibits pro-inflammatory neuropeptide release, while naproxen provides additional pain relief through cyclooxygenase (COX) enzyme inhibition, reducing inflammatory mediators and peripheral pain signaling.

I find it works well on places where the skin is thin or the joint is closer to the surface like hands, feet, and my neck and jaw. I haven't found it to work terribly well on larger joints like my knees. I'm also a big fan of the acetaminophen and na...View more
