Some people require no other treatment than pain medications and bed rest. A 2015 review found tentative evidence to support the use of caffeine. Pharmacological treatments as; gabapentin, pregabalin, neostigmine/atropine, methylxanthines, and triptans. Minimally invasive procedures as; bilateral greater occipital nerve block or sphenopalatine ganglion block. Persistent and severe<unk>  may require an epidural blood patch. A small amount of the person's blood is injected into the epidural space near the site of the original<unk> ; the resulting blood clot then "patches" the meningeal leak. The procedure carries the typical risks of any epidural<unk> . However, it is effective, and further intervention is rarely necessary.
