Medication-overuse headache

When painkillers start causing headaches

Taking painkillers for headaches on many days each month, typically 10 to 15 days or more, can make headaches more frequent. This is known as medication-overuse headache, and it is a common reason migraine becomes daily.

The answer is not to stop suddenly. Stopping abruptly can cause rebound headaches, and some medicines must be reduced slowly. Your plan should be agreed with your doctor.
