I can only guess that he is doing a trial to see if it might help. Can't find any mention of it at PubMed for its use with headaches of any type.

But over the years, many meds have been tried this way: a trial appears in the literature and then that med disappears--didn't work. But that's the way many off label applications have come into general use: "them what works live on".
