Abstract
We describe the case report of a migraine sufferer who developed ergot amine-induced headache and subsequently replaced ergotamine with daily sumatriptan (100 mg p.o.). The features of the headache were unchange d except for the presence of superimposed migraine-like headaches that occurred every 24 h.
