Protocol summary

Study aim
The effect of Helicobacter Pylori eradication in improving the symptoms of migraine patients
Design
Before and after clinical trial without control group and without blinding, phase 2 on 35 patients
Settings and conduct
Patients with migraine without aura were diagnosed by a neurologist at the Ghaem Mashhad Hospital based on the IHS criteria. At the beginning of the study, migraine attacks are evaluated using the MIDAS questionnaire, and patients with a MIDAS score greater than 6 are referred to a gastroenterologist. Then, people with a positive Helicobacter Pylori fecal antigen test are included in the study. In addition to classic migraine treatment, all patients will receive a Helicobacter Pylori eradication regimen (3-drug regimen with amoxicillin 1000 mg every 12 hours, clarithromycin 500 mg every 12 hours, and omeprazole 20 mg every 12 hours for 2 weeks). After 4 weeks from the end of the treatment, fecal antigen tests are performed again in order to check the eradication of Helicobacter. Re-evaluation in terms of the number and severity of migraine attacks is done 3 months after the end of the treatment. Patients will receive medical treatment with sumatriptan 50 mg tablets in case of an acute migraine attack.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Patients with migraine without aura were diagnosed by a neurologist based on the criteria of the International Headache Society (IHS) over 16 years old, suffering from migraine without aura, a positive Helicobacter pylori fecal antigen test and the ability of cooperation
Intervention groups
A Helicobacter Pylori eradication regimen will be given to the intervention group for 2 weeks
Main outcome variables
Assessment of migraine severity based on a questionnaire before and after Helicobacter Pylori treatment, assessment of the prevalence of Helicobacter Pylori in migraine patients
