OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of venlafaxine in the prophylaxis of migraine. BACKGROUND: The efficacy of venlafaxine, which is selectively effective on the serotonergic and noradrenergic mechanisms, on various headaches and chronic pain syndromes has been demonstrated. To our knowledge, this is the fi…
