Treatment for Cluster Headache
Plavix (clopidogrel) is an antiplatelet agent that inhibits platelet aggregation by irreversibly blocking the P2Y12 receptor on platelets, thereby preventing platelet activation and thrombus formation. While not a primary treatment for Cluster Headache, some studies suggest it may have a potential role in reducing vascular inflammation and platelet-mediated mechanisms that could contribute to headache pathogenesis.

I was on plavix for 90 days after a possible TIA - zero headaches during that time. Since ceasing plavix headaches have returned to normal (1x week) frequency. Curious if you’ve found any blood thinning options with less bleeding risk.
