Research Summary
A recent study published in Clinical Neurology and Neurosurgery explored the effects of preventive migraine treatment on vestibular symptoms. Conducted at a tertiary headache center, the SPIRAL study followed 59 migraine patients with vestibular symptoms over three months. Results showed significant reductions in monthly headache days, from 15 to 4, and improvements in Headache Impact Test scores and dizziness prevalence. While dizziness-related disability decreased modestly, improvements correlated with reduced asymmetry in vestibular function, as measured by video head impulse tests. These findings, though exploratory, suggest that preventive therapy can alleviate both headache and vestibular symptoms in migraine sufferers.
