Medrol Dose Pack for Acute Post-Concussion Headaches
This study is looking at whether a medication called Methylprednisolone (Medrol Dose Pack) can help people who have headaches after a concussion (Post-Concussion Syndrome). Researchers want to see if this medicine can reduce how often or how bad these headaches are, and if it can help with other symptoms like dizziness, allowing people to return to daily activities sooner. The study plans to enroll 25 adults, aged 18 and older, who are able to take oral medication. Success will be measured by changes in headache symptoms after one week. The current recruitment status is unclear.
