Treatment for Cluster Headache

Nasal steroids, such as fluticasone, work by reducing local inflammation and suppressing the immune response in the nasal mucosa, which can help modulate the trigeminal nerve's hyperactivity associated with cluster headaches. By decreasing pro-inflammatory cytokines and inhibiting inflammatory cell migration, these medications can potentially reduce the frequency and intensity of cluster headache episodes and provide symptomatic relief.
