Abstract
The evolution of headache from childhood into adulthood is receiving greater attention as questions arise regarding prevalence and long-term remission rates. Presenting symptoms of headache in childhood and adolescence tend to differ from those in adults, making it difficult to obtain high sensitivity ratings using the present standard International Headache Society criteria specifically with regard to migraine. The new treatment options that have been available for adults for several years are now being studied in childhood and adolescent populations. Are they safe and effective, and is there a need to alter dosages in this population? The interest in chronic daily headache in childhood and adolescence is increasing because studies in this population may help us to advance our knowledge with regard to adult chronic daily headache.
