Treatment for Cluster Headache
Combination therapy for Cluster Headache typically involves sumatriptan (a selective serotonin receptor agonist) and oxygen inhalation, which work synergistically to rapidly reduce acute pain and vascular inflammation. Sumatriptan constricts cranial blood vessels and inhibits neuropeptide release, while high-flow oxygen induces vasoconstriction and reduces neurogenic inflammation, providing rapid and effective symptomatic relief.
