Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

It is not previously investigated whether, there is a correlation between potassium channels and migraine, so it is unclear whether, this signaling pathway through potassium channels has an impact on migraine pathophysiology.

Maxipost (BMS 204352) is a vasoactive molecule that causes vasodilation via the big calcium dependent potassium (BKCa) channel signaling pathway. Maxipost decreases the blood pressure and maxipost infusion causes headache in healthy volunteers. A possible coherence between maxipost and headache/migraine in healthy volunteers and migraine patients is yet to be investigated.

The present study aims to clarify a possible coherence between maxipost and headache/migraine and it will help to shed light on the importance of potassium channels in migraine. In general, the study will contribute to a greater understanding of migraine pathogenesis and possibly lead to development of specific migraine treatment.
