12/ Remember. Abortive drugs are helpful and safe for use. However, the use of abortives should be limited to < 15 days/month (simple analgesics/NSAIDs) and < 10 days/month (ergots, triptans, others) to avoid the development of medication overuse headache.

1/ Like a breeze 🌬 precedes a storm ⛈, the aura usually precedes the headache in up to 60 min. But not always. It can also: - Occurs alone, not followed by any headache - Occurs during the headache episode
