Background. Report of three cases of medial upper eyelid lagophthalmos as complication of external dacryocystorhinostomy. History and Signs.

[Headache from overuse of medication].

Medication overuse headache (MOH) occurs in about 1% of the general population. A marked increase of its prevalence has to be expected in the future, since more and more adolescents are subject to medication overuse. The revised International Classification of Headache Disorders contains detailed diagnostic criteria for headache due to particular groups of substances.

[Preventive treatment of migraine and chronic tension headache with moclobemide].

Tricyclic antidepressants have been used for a long time in migraine prophylaxis and in the treatment of chronic tension-type headache. Because of their relatively frequent and unpleasant side effects, however, their use cannot be recommended without reservation. The selective and reversible monoamine oxidase inhibitor type A (MAO-A inhibitor), moclobemide (Aurorix), is much better tolerated and safer to use.
