Population: Intent to Treat

Percentage of patients with a severe (60-78) score on the Headache Impact Test (HIT-6) Questionnaire during the 28 day period, ending with Week 24. The HIT-6 consisted of 6 questions about headache and impact on the patient's health and well-being. Answers for each question ranged from 6=Never, 8=Rarely, 10=Sometimes, 11=Very Often, and 13=Always. The total scores ranged from 36-49 (Little or No Impact), 50-55 (Some Impact), 56-59 (Substantial Impact) and 60-78 (Severe Impact).
