MIGRAINE is a disabling primary headache disorder and is ranked the third highest cause of disability worldwide among men and women under 50 years old, according to the Global Burden of Disease Study 2010.
It affects more than 10% of the global population and is two to three times more common among women than men, largely because of hormonal influences.
