Lifestyle and home remedies
The following measures may help you avoid a cluster headache attack during a cluster cycle:
- Stick to a regular sleep schedule. Cluster periods can begin when there are changes in your normal sleep schedule. During a cluster period, follow your usual sleep routine.
- Avoid alcohol. Alcohol consumption, including beer and wine, can quickly trigger a headache during a cluster period.
