Treatment for Cluster Headache

Riboflavin (Vitamin B2) is believed to modulate mitochondrial energy metabolism and improve cellular bioenergetics in neural tissues, potentially reducing neuronal hyperexcitability associated with cluster headaches. Its mechanism likely involves enhancing mitochondrial electron transport chain function and reducing oxidative stress, which may help decrease the frequency and intensity of cluster headache episodes.
