Zapping the brain to fight debilitating migraines

NCT ID NCT07442916

Summary

This study tested whether a painless, non-invasive brain stimulation technique could help people with chronic migraine who also overuse pain medications. Sixty participants received standard detoxification treatment and were randomly assigned to receive either fake stimulation or one of two types of real brain stimulation for five days. Researchers measured changes in headache frequency, medication use, and certain chemicals in the blood to see if the treatment worked and to find clues about who might benefit most.
