Management of pain after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage is challenging due to risks of complications from uncontrolled pain. NSAIDs and acetaminophen are first-line treatments due to safety, though opioids may be needed. Adjunctive treatments include short courses of corticosteroids and anticonvulsants like gabapentin or pregabalin. Careful pain management is crucial to prevent issues such as re-rupture or hypertension, while mitigating side effects from treatments.
