Abstract

These guidelines have been developed to assist the physician in making appropriate choices in work-up and treatment of patients with headaches. The specific aim of the Evidence Based Guidelines for Treatment of Primary Headaches – 2012 Update is to provide recommendations for establishing an accurate diagnosis and choose the most appropriate therapy in the group of patients with primary headaches, based on a comprehensive review and meta-analysis of scientific evidence with regard to treatment possibilities in Croatia. These data are based on our previous Evidence Based Guidelines for Treatment of Primary Headaches published in 2005 and other recommendations and guidelines for headache treatment.
