Resumen

Sumatriptan was developed as an agent for the treatment of acute migraine. However, sumatriptan may alleviate not only migraine headache, but also headache of subarachnoid hemorrhage and meningitis. We report 2 patients whose migraine-like headache on presentation was relieved by subcutaneous sumatriptan. Later, both patients were diagnosed with aseptic meningitis.
