Methods： The 120 cases in the treatment group were treated with routine acupuncture therapy, while the 40 cases in the control group were treated with Ergotamine and Caffeine Tablet, and then the therapeutic effect and recovery time of the two groups were compared. Results： The recovery rate of the treatment group was 90.0%, which is higher than 70.0% of the control group （P〈 0.01）. The total effective rate of the treatment group was 100%, which is better than 92.5% of the control group （P 〈 0.05）, The therapeutic effect of the treatment group was significantly better than the control group and the treatment group needed shorter treatment period （P 〈 0.05）. Conclusions： Acupuncture has higher recovery rate and total effective rate as well as shorter treatment period than oral ergotamine and caffeine tablets, which indicated that acupuncture is superior to the routinely-administered oral western tablets in treating migraine.展开更多
