title: [Migraine: diagnosis, differential diagnosis and treatment].
abstract: Headache takes a large place in daily medical practice, and it is important to try and establish the most precise possible diagnosis. An outline of the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of migraine is followed by a discussion of interval drug treatment forms and counselling. Today's recommended treatment for attacks and the commonest sources of error in migraine management are summarized.
