taurine
Treatment for Cluster Headache
Taurine acts as a neuromodulator that may help alleviate cluster headaches by stabilizing neuronal membranes and regulating calcium signaling pathways. Its potential therapeutic effects stem from its ability to reduce neuronal hyperexcitability and modulate neurotransmitter release, particularly in the hypothalamic and trigeminal pain processing regions. While the exact mechanism is not fully understood, taurine's neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory properties suggest it could potentially interrupt the pathological processes underlying cluster headache episodes.
