The medicine has not been designed for use on a daily basis.
Hence, taking it regularly can affect some receptors in the brain and
negatively influence the pain process. So, instead a vicious cycle
follows, where instead of relieving the pain, the medicine actually
aggravates it.
Ergotamine rebound headache is a headache caused
by overuse of medicine. The patient needs to stop taking ergotamine but
then may experience withdrawal symptoms. In some cases, hospitalization
may also be necessary.
Obesity:
Migraine
and obesity form a vicious circle, whereby one leads to the other. It is
not that obese people are more at a risk of migraine. But instead,
migraine may cause obesity due to the fact that migraine sufferers
become inactive due to the frequent, intense pain that they suffer. It
is actually inactivity which is the cause of their obesity. It is also
seen that some migraine medications may increase the appetite and can
thus, cause weight gain.
Obesity is dangerous in the case of
migraine because it increases the risk factors and may even cause
various complications.
