  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

Cafergot was effective for 21 of 30 cases of migraine examined but it was not effec-tive for 5 cases of neurotic headache.

The effect of Cafergot is supposed to have some relationships with pathogenetic mecha-nisms of migraine and has a prompt effect, so that it will be also useful for the thera-peutic diagnosis of migraine. Cafergot is spe-cially effective for the cases which have al-most normal E. E. G. findings at rest and ab-normal findings only by activation. The ca-ses which showed abnormal E. E.G. findings at rest or severe pathological E. E.G. findings by activation are refractory to Cafergot. Anti-convulsants are more effective for such cases.

Cafergot is most effective when it was given at the prodrcmal stages or at the onset of attack. Later administration of this medicine is not effective.

Few cases showed side effects with Cafer-got, but they were mild and controled easily by the interruption or reducing in dosage orby combination with other medicines. As the patients of migraine have charac-teristic mental disposition, not only the me-dication, but psychotherapy and guidance in daily life are indispensable for their treat-ment.
