Abstract:
The landscape of acute migraine medication has changed fundamentally in recent years. It has been a gradual, often unnoticed process characterized less by spectacular introduction of new substances than by changes in patients' access to medications and individualized selection of treatment adapted to the patients' needs. Four triptans are now available over-the-counter in Germany which has a major influence on self-medication. The main new introduction was the 5HT1F-agonist lasmiditan as an alternative to triptans.

Adrenergic Agonists: Therapeutic Uses
Emergency and Intensive Care Unit (ICU) applications: Pressor agents increase blood pressure, heart rate, and contractility in shock and organ failure situations. Dopamine can induce vasodilation and stimulate adrenoceptors. Endogenous catecholamines are effective in treating cardiogenic shock. α2-agonists like clonidine can reverse anesthesia-induced hypertension.
