†Only ICHD‐2 symptom criteria were available in 2005; however, ICHD‐2 and ICHD‐3 beta are similar with respect to symptom criteria and case selection for migraine. Inclusion criteria are considered a modification of ICHD‐3 beta because 2 criteria were not confirmed: ≥5 lifetime migraine events (criterion A) and duration of attack untreated from 4–72 hours (criterion B).
