Abstract

Background: Headache (HA) is a very common neurological problem in the pediatric population. Topiramate (TPM) is currently approved in children 2years of age and older as an adjunctive treatment of partial and primary generalized seizures. Historically, anticonvulsants have proven effective for adult HA and, in fact, given this, and the availability of safety data on TPM in the pediatric population, it is an agent that holds promise for HA prophylaxis in children. There is at least one small case report indicating efficacy in pediatric migraine but there are /INS;no studies to date including patients with CDH and mixed type HA.
