What are vascular and tension" headaches?

What's a safe, low side-effect medication for preventing tension headaches?

  • I've been thinking of Amitriptyline--said to be the most effective of the preventive-type drugs--but it has a lot of unpleasant side effects, such as weight gain, for example. Any others out there? By the way NSAIDs, Aspirin, Tylenol, etc, do not help my kind of headache. I have a chronic tension headache which does not respond to most of the basic remedies.

  • Answer:

    Ibuprofen, Cannabis, or better sleep / stress-reducing activities.
