Peter J. Goadsby,Till Sprenger +1 more

Assessing and managing all aspects of migraine: migraine attacks, migraine-related functional impairment, common comorbidities, and quality of life.

TL;DR: The International Headache Classification Committee has worked out the more inclusive criteria for CM and MOH and it is now recommended that the MOH diagnosis should no longer request improvement after discontinuation of medication overuse but should be given to patients if they have a primary headache plus ongoing medication over use.
