简要总结
Investigators aim to compare the effect of zonisamide versus propranolol in migraine by assessing the absolute 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
详细描述
Investigators will enroll 600 migraine patients who are diagnosed according to ICHD3-beta criteria in our study and will use a questionnaire to detect their demographic and clinical features (disease duration, attack frequency, and duration, pain intensity assessed by the visual analogic scale and we have two groups the first group will include 300 patients and will receive 100mg zonisamide daily and Acetaminophen 500-1000 mg in acute attack, and the second group will receive propranolol 160 mg per day and Acetaminophen 500-1000 mg in acute attack for at least three months. Investigators will assess 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. HIT-6 score reduction in each group after three months of treatment. The safety of lacosamide was evaluated by monitoring and documenting treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAE) in patients through regular follow-up procedures for three months.

盲法说明
An independent statistician generated a blocked randomization sequence using computer-generated random numbers; participants received either zonisamide and acetaminophen or propranolol and acetaminophen from a specially trained and qualified nurse. We prepared Sequentially numbered opaque sealed envelopes and 600 labels for each drug labeled Drug A or B. According to the randomization chart, put them into envelopes numbered 1 to 600. Envelopes were attached to the patient's files. Patients were recruited sequentially and were given enrollment numbers starting from 1, which were mentioned in their files. Files with the same number as the patient enrolment number were opened and the patients were assigned to receive drugs A or B. Drug A included zonisamide and acetaminophen, and Drug B included propranolol and acetaminophen. The statistical analysis was performed by an independent statistician who did not know the treatment protocol of groups A or B.

研究组 & 干预措施
zonisamide and Acetaminophen arm
The arm will include 300 migraine patients diagnosed according to ICHD3-beta criteria. All patients will receive zonisamide 50 mg twice 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 lacosamide was evaluated by monitoring and documenting treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAE) in patients through regular follow-up procedures for three months.
干预措施: Zonisamide 50 MG (Drug)
Propranolol and Acetaminophen group
The arm will include 300 migraine patients diagnosed according to ICHD3-beta criteria. All patients will receive propranolol 160 mg once 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 lacosamide was evaluated by monitoring and documenting treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAE) in patients through regular follow-up procedures for three months.
干预措施: Propranolol (Drug)
