Treatment for Cluster Headache

Vitex agnus-castus contains compounds that modulate dopaminergic and prolactin pathways, potentially reducing neurogenic inflammation and neuronal excitability associated with cluster headaches. By acting as a partial dopamine D2 receptor agonist, vitex may help regulate neurotransmitter balance and decrease the frequency and intensity of cluster headache episodes.
