Authors

Kuruvilla DE

Abstract

Cannabinoids have gained attention as a potential treatment for headache disorders, including migraine and cluster headache. While some studies suggest cannabinoids may provide analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects, concerns remain regarding their potential for overuse headache, cognitive impairment, and psychological dependence. This study critically evaluates the current evidence on cannabinoids in headache treatment, weighing their benefits and risks.
