This is the most comprehensive headache book I've found. Other's I've read are biased towards pushing only drug therapies or only non-drug therapies. If you suffer from headaches, this is the only book you need to read. If you're doctor seems to be getting nowhere helping treat your headaches, give him/her a copy.

I have read through most of the headache books that I've been able to find. This book is a cut above the rest of them. I just got the new edition of Headache Help, and it does go into great detail about all the medications I'm interested in. What separates this book from the rest is the incredible length and depth which the book delves into all these various headache medications. It is a great book to use to help you with your doctor, and as a reference for the different headache medicines and approaches.

I think that this one has been the most helpful of all the books I read....I particularly like the chapters on the medicines...very complete......highly recommended...JOH

I finally found a book that goes into detail about all of the headache drugs....the sections outside of medications are good, but the medicine sections are outstanding...much better that the others I have read....alos, the alternative section is very good.

I have read lots of the books out there and this one is the most useful...it tells me all about the medicine options. It does a good job with alternatives, also.

If you have migraines, you really need this book. Not only does Dr. Robbins write in a down-to-earth fashion that laypeople can understand, he also covers almost all of the newer treatments. Read this book and you can talk to your doctor and/or neurologist with confidence.

Unfortunately, new drugs come out so rapidly that we need a new edition already. But until then, Dr. Robbins' book remains the key resource for headache sufferers.
