Study Overview

Brief Summary

This study aims to understand the efficacy of two probiotic interventions as prophylaxes of migraine symptoms in individuals diagnosed with episodic migraine.

The primary outcome measure will be migraine days per month, but secondary outcome measures such as use of analgesia, the wider impact of migraine (as assessed through the HIT-6 score) will also be assessed. Finally adverse effects will be evaluated.

The study will have three arms: two arms including the two different probiotic preparations and a third placebo arm.
