RODRIGUEZ, Ana B et al. Homeopathic treatment of vascular cephaleas in the emergency service. AMC [online]. 2000, vol.4, n.5. ISSN 1025-0255.

An open early phase II ramdomized clinical trial was carried out to evaluate homeopathic medications in patients treated for primary vascular cephalea at the emergency room of "Carlos Juan Finlay" Clinic and at the Natural and Traditional Medicine Department in the Öctavio de la Concepcion y de la Pedraja" Hospital from October 1997 to November 1998. The sample was taken from 60 patients aged 15 to 60 years. Data were collected and processed in a computer and later represented into graphics and charts. Due to the afore mentioned, cephalea dissapeared in 85% of patients while 15% relieved. 121 out of the 142 combined neurovegetative symptoms dissapear and 21 aliviated. Taking into account these results, it can be said that the suggested treatment is useful, accurate and inoccous.
