octopamine and Bilateral Headache

octopamine has been researched along with Bilateral Headache in 3 studies

Octopamine: An alpha-adrenergic sympathomimetic amine, biosynthesized from tyramine in the CNS and platelets and also in invertebrate nervous systems. It is used to treat hypotension and as a cardiotonic. The natural D(-) form is more potent than the L(+) form in producing cardiovascular adrenergic responses. It is also a neurotransmitter in some invertebrates.
octopamine : A member of the class of phenylethanolamines that is phenol which is substituted at the para- position by a 2-amino-1-hydroxyethyl group. A biogenic phenylethanolamine which has been found to act as a neurotransmitter, neurohormone or neuromodulator in invertebrates.

"The very high prevalence of migraine in our group of ED sufferers and the biochemical profile of migraine, similar to that ED patients have shown in this study, suggest that migraine may constitute a risk factor for the occurrence of ED in the young females."1.35Migraine prevalence in eating disorders and pathophysiological correlations. ( Bolner, A; Colavito, D; D'Andrea, G; d'Onofrio, F; Francesconi, F; Musco, F; Ostuzzi, R, 2009)
