Summary

Investigators aim to compare the effect of valproate versus topiramate in migraine by assessing the reduction in MMD in each group, the percentage of patients who achieved ≥ 50% reduction in the monthly headache days frequency compared to the baseline frequency.

Conditions

  • Migraine Disorders

Interventions

DRUG

Valproic acid

The arm will include 300 migraine patients diagnosed according to ICHD3-beta criteria. All patients will receive valproate 500-1000 mg daily and Acetaminophen 500-1000 mg only in acute migraine attacks for 3 months. We will assess The change in migraine days per 28 days, the number of migraine days after three months of treatment, and the percentage of patients who achieved ≥ 50% reduction in the monthly headache days frequency compared to the baseline frequency (14). HIT-6 score reduction in each group after three months of treatment. The safety of valproate was evaluated by monitoring and documenting treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAE) in patients through regular follow-up procedures for three months.

DRUG

Topiramate 50 MG

The arm will include 300 migraine patients diagnosed according to ICHD3-beta criteria. All patients will receive topiramate 50-100 mg daily and Acetaminophen 500-1000 mg only in acute migraine attacks for 3 months. We will assess The change in migraine days per 28 days, the number of migraine days after three months of treatment, and the percentage of patients who achieved ≥ 50% reduction in the monthly headache days frequency compared to the baseline frequency (14). HIT-6 score reduction in each group after three months of treatment.
