Active clinical trials for "Headache"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of three doses of topiramate (50 milligrams[mg], 100mg, and 200mg per day) compared with placebo in the prevention of migraine. The study will also assess the dose response relationship and the efficacy of treatment with topiramate versus placebo on Health-Related Quality of Life.

Hypothesis A single subanesthetic dose of propofol will result in improved pain and quality of life for the next 30 days in persons with chronic daily headache (CDH) Specific objectives To measure the effect of a single infusion of propofol at 40 mcg / kg / minute over 60 mins on headache-related quality of life (measured by the Headache Disability Index) and on headache severity (measured by the Headache Index) in subjects with chronic daily headache over 30 days45-47

Migraines are a specific type of headache that frequently recur and are very painful. Although there are many medications that are effective against migraines, none of these medications cure 100% of migraines. Another problem with migraines is that although many times they get better after intravenous (IV) treatment in the emergency room (ER), about 1/3 of the time migraines recur the next day. The purpose of this research project is to see if adding a medication called dexamethasone to standard ER therapy will help patients get better quicker and stay pain-free more often than if they receive placebo.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether prednisolone is more effective than placebo in the first six days after initiation of medication withdrawal therapy for a medication overuse headache.
