January 23, 2025

Description: 

Migraines are often complex, involving a combination of genetic, environmental, neurological factors and their chronic nature can lead to significant disability. Optimal migraine management requires a comprehensive approach, integrating pharmacological treatments, lifestyle modifications, and personalized care strategies. Neuroscience professionals play a pivotal role in diagnosing, monitoring, and adjusting treatments for individuals, helping to reduce the frequency and severity of attacks. This activity reviews the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management of migraines by providing healthcare providers with comprehensive knowledge about the latest evidence-based strategies for acute treatment, preventive therapies, and patient-centered approaches to care.
