if ibuprufen is not helping to control your headache, you need to first find out the cause for your headache. if it is associated with stress, tension, aura, vomiting, light headness, etc. you need to rule out migraine. need to consult the neurophysician and take the medicine. if headache is associated with hypertension then you should take antihypertensive treatment as per doctor.
