Good people and practicioners,
My name is Fritz Williams and I have
a queery for anyone the knows ANYTHING about cluster headaches.
My father has cluster headaches and had them for ten years. He is
currently taking D.H.E 45 (an ergotamine (vaso-constrictor)) and
DEPACOTE.
My queery is: Is there anything newer than these two drugs that have
been developed in the past 6 months or so?
If you have any information, please leave a message for me.
Leave any E-mail for FRITZ WILLIAMS.
Thank you for your time and hope to hear from you soon.
Fritz

There are some things that can be tried. Stellate Ganglion Blocks are
sometimes effective for placing a patient into remission for awhile.
Prednisone can sometimes be used.
