  • Age between 18 and 80 years.
  • Subjects must have headache at least 15 days per month during the last 4 weeks to enter the baseline phase.

  • Known comprised respiratory function.
  • Member of investigational site staff or relative of the investigator.
  • Severe cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease such as ischemic heart disease, myocardial infarction or previous stroke or transient ischemic attack, major CVD interventions during the last three months.
  • Expected poor compliance, i.e., considered unlikely to be able to complete all protocol required study visits or procedures, and/or to comply with all required study procedures to the best of the subject’s and investigator’s knowledge.
