Intermittent headache | |
---|---|
The SP is a 20-year-old male with a complaint of an intermittent (moderate–to-severe) headache for 04 days duration. The SP is currently taking paracetamol to alleviate his symptom. Yet, he sensed that he needs a more effective treatment and, hence, visited a community pharmacy. | |
The pharmacist was given the following information when asked: | The SP had no other previous or current medical condition. The SP did not drink coffee and alcohol and was non-smoker. |
The headache started 04 days back and the SP had the symptom for most of the days. | |
The pain was described as mild, dull, low intensity, and affecting both sides of the head. | |
Paracetamol was the only medication the SP was taking during that time. | |
There were no special factors that trigger/worsen the headache. | |
The patient did not visit a hospital for this cause. |
