Aspartame, an artificial sweetener added to many foods and beverages,
may trigger headaches in susceptible individuals. We report two patients

with aspartame-triggered attacks in whom the use of an
aspartame-containing acute medication (Maxalt-MLT) worsened
an ongoing attack of migraine. PMID: 11703479

The disorders described in this article are relatively rare, but
probably are more common than previously thought. Because these
disorders cause significant pain and disability and treatment response
differs from that of migraine, tension-type, and cluster headaches,
recognition is essential. Table 1 lists the important clinical features
of these syndromes and contrasts them with cluster headache, the
disorder for which they are often confused. Publication Types: Review
Review, Tutorial PMID: 11480270

Migraine is a syndrome characterized by recurrent headaches with or
without aura. Triggers include foods, hormonal changes, and stressors.
Migraine must be differentiated from other unilateral headache
disorders and from headaches due to other neurologic and
systemic diseases.
