Headache - page 4

Pharmacist's advice

Tension headache is the most common type of headache and is often associated with stress, fatigue, and poor posture. In addition to adequate supplementation with magnesium and B-complex vitamins, it is important to drink enough fluids throughout the day and take breaks if you work at a computer for a long time. A gentle massage of the temples and neck, as well as a short rest in a ventilated room, can significantly speed up the action of the preparations and bring faster relief.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

2. Which vitamins are most important for headache prevention?
B-complex vitamins (especially B2 - riboflavin) and magnesium play a key role in maintaining the normal function of the nervous system and relaxing blood vessels, thereby directly contributing to a reduction in the frequency of headaches.
