Summary
It is a common belief that patients with MOH rarely respond of preventative medications whilst overusing acute medications. However, no randomized trial has been done previously to prove such statement. Based on some clinical experiences, our hypothesis are patients with probably MOH may benefit from use of preventive medications better than treatment with abrupt withdrawal or no specific treatment.
