Headache treatment (Dehydration headache)

Drinking enough water can be important to prevent or mitigate any kind of headache, and it is especially effective if you're suffering from a dehydration headache (which may also be the case if you had too much caffeine).

Therefore:

• Always strive to drink at least 2 litres of water every day, especially if you have hangover headache;
• Drink a glass of water with every meal;
• Go for small amounts of water frequently,  200-250mls every 15-20 minutes, until symptoms subside;
• Drink water especially before and after exercise;
• Drink water whenever you feel your headache comes from a high blood pressure.
