Treating exertional headaches

Most exertional headaches, which occur during exercise, are benign and respond to usual headache therapy. In many patients, headaches disappear spontaneously. Indomethacin, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, can be used chronically or before specific activities that trigger the headaches. If indomethacin is taken chronically, monitoring for side effects is mandatory.
