topicCoenzyme Q10 Migraine Randomized Trial
claimClinically, migraine is characterized by recurrent attacks of moderate-to-severe headache lasting 4–72 h, typically unilateral and pulsating, aggravated by routine physical activity, and frequently accompanied by photophobia and phonophobia; in a substantial subset of patients, attacks are associated with reversible focal neurological symptoms called aura.
