Persons who have been exposed to excessive heat or have actually had a heat stroke are very prone to headache, which is made worse by movements of the head. Sodium bromide, twenty grains dissolved in water, may be given to advantage three times daily between meals in these cases for not more than two days. Phenacetin in eight grain doses may also afford relief, but should not be used more often than once or twice a day.
