Amitriptyline is effective in chronic but not in episodic tension-type headache: pathogenetic implications.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:To test whether chronic headache (>3 days/week) is more prevalent than episodic headache (<3 days/week) in patients with a previous history of significant head trauma. METHOD:We included 903 consecutive patients referred to a specialist center for headache during a period of 2 years. As the main parameter, w...
