چکیده انگلیسی
Hemicrania continua (HC) is a daily continuous unilateral headache of moderate intensity with super imposed exacerbations of more severe pain accompanied by migrainous and cranial autonomic features. Response to indomethacin is an essential feature in the IHS diagnostic criteria. However, indomethacin is associated with a number of side effects. HC is a life long condition, and skipping of a single dose of indomethacin usually leads to reappearance of headache. Various drugs have been tried as alternatives to indomethacin in the patients intolerant to indomethacin. We report two cases of HC responsive to topiramate and review the available alternatives for the patients of HC. We also discuss the side effects of indomethacin in the various headache disorders and other painful conditions, and suggest the need for trial of other drugs for the patients of HC.
