Abstract

Treating acute headache begins at home and continues, if necessary, in the emergency department (ED). Drug treatment is heterogenous,1 and understanding the determinants of prescribing could help appropriate medication choices. We therefore assessed the predictors of prescribing in Australian and New Zealand EDs for people with primary headache.
