Subject
High Intracranial Pressure/headache; Pseudotumor Cerebri
Description
Raised intracranial pressure (ICP) is a feature of Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension (IIH), however, headache mechanisms are unknown, and targeted therapies are lacking. This study investigated headache mechanisms in raised ICP and the effects of; a) reducing ICP with glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist Exenatide b) attenuation with calcitoningene related peptide (CGRP).
