Sponsor: Kafrelsheikh University

Interventions
Valproic Acid 500 MG
The arm will include 300 migraine patients diagnosed according to ICHD3-beta criteria. We will assess The change in migraine days per 28 days, the number of migraine days after three months of treatment, and the percentage of patients who achieved ≥ 50% reduction in the monthly headache days frequency compared to the baseline frequency (14). HIT-6 score reduction in each group after three months of treatment. The treatment safety was evaluated by monitoring and documenting treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAE) in patients through regular follow-up procedures for three months.
