Verapamil: Patients in groupe A require verapamil initiation as a preventive treatment and patients in group B are patients already undergoing a verapamil treatment for their Cluster Headache. The doses of verapamil are increased for the patients in group A, after a clinical examination an electrocardiogram, and a blood test.
