Summary

This study tests an online program called Migraine Manager for teens aged 11 to 17 with frequent migraines (8 or more per month). The tool gives personalized tips on healthy habits like drinking water, eating regularly, exercising, and sleeping well. Researchers will compare 80 teens using the tool to 80 teens in a control group to see if it reduces headache days over a year.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: Migraine Manager (online behavioral intervention)
What this could lead to: If it works, this could provide a simple, accessible online tool to help teens manage migraines and reduce headache frequency.
What could go wrong: This is a mid-stage trial with 160 participants, so results may not apply to all teens. The intervention relies on self-reported habits, which may not be accurate.
