Only published trials on migraine or tension-type headache were considered. For the self medication in migraine, acetylsalicylic acid, ibuprofen, paracetamol, and a combination of acetyl salicylic acid, paracetamol, and caffeine are drugs of first choice. In tension-type headache, acetylsalicylic acid, ibuprofen, and a combination of acetylsalicylic acid, paracetamol, and caffeine ore drugs of first choice; paracetamol is drug of second choice in tension-type headache. Acute drugs for idiopathic headache should not be taken on more than 10 days per month and not longer than three consecutive days.
