Migraine treatment in patients with poor compliance

MUDr. Jana Múdra
Neurologická ambulancia, Košice

Compliance is a key factor in the treatment of many chronic diseases. In the dictionary it means agreement, willingness, consistency and cooperation. Adherence has similar meaning. Poor treatment adherence is associated with poor results and decreases with the complexity of the treatment. Inadequate usage of headache treatment, including overuse of medication as well as underuse, can exacerbate headaches and is a risk factor for the development of chronic migraine. Despite the importance of treatment adherence, there are very few studies that have examined adherence of patients suffering from migraine. Available studies indicate that acute and prophylactic medication adherence in migraine treatment is low. Currently, new options are available for migraine treatment that also improve the compliance.

Keywords: migraine, compliance, adherence, acute and prophylactic treatment, monoclonal antibodies against CGRP.
