Clinical efficacy, headache seizure frequency, headache seizure duration and degree score, hemorheology indexes before and after treatment, and the incidence of adverse reactions in 2 groups were observed. RESULTS: The total effective rate in observation group was significantly higher than control group, with statistical significance (P<0.05). After treatment, the headache seizure frequency, headache seizure duration and degree score, hemorheology indexes in 2 groups were significantly lower than before, and observation group was lower than control group, with statistical significance (P<0.05). And there was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions (P>0.05).
