What to take for menopause headaches daily?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Daily headaches: Some women are prescribed a low dose hormone replacement which sometimes helps (if you have no risk factors for breast cancer). You need to avoid over-using pain medications which cause rebound headaches (narcotics, tylenol, (acetaminophen) fioricet). Anti-inflammatories (ibuprofen, naproxen) sometimes help. You might need a prescription for a daily medication to try to prevent the headaches.
