Produktbeschreibung

Insights into Migraine Treatments: Towards Personalized Medicine provides knowledge to facilitate the choice of optimal treatment for each patient in the context of migraine care. It presents the numerous therapies to treat migraines, and the methods by which they function. Further, this book discusses the challenges of determining which option is best for a particular patient. It offers key information on efficacy, safety, and biomarkers of patient responses to currently available therapies, thereby providing a resource to help healthcare professionals choose treatments tailored to individual patients. Researchers and clinicians alike will benefit from its solution-driven perspective. Insights into Migraine Treatments: Towards Personalized Medicine discusses topics ranging from pathophysiology of migraines to acute treatments, pharmacological and non-pharmacological preventive treatments, neuroimaging and neurophysiology, all with a view toward meeting the unique needs of each migraine patient.
