  • Title: Electroconvulsive therapy-induced migraine successfully treated with valproic acid.
    Author: Rovers JM, Roks G.
    Journal: J ECT; 2012 Mar; 28(1):64-5. PubMed ID: 22343586.
    Abstract:
    Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is mainly used for treating severe depression, mania, schizophrenia, and catatonia. Electroconvulsive therapy is usually without serious adverse effects. Headache is a common complaint after ECT but is usually mild and short lasting. Recurrent common migraine induced by ECT has been rarely reported. We report a patient with ECT-induced migraine successfully treated with valproic acid.
