Patients will have the next selection criteria: * Patients diagnosed by a neurologist in the headache clinic * Criteria for episodic and chronic tension-type headache * Poor clinical response to prophylactic treatment (amitriptyline, topiramate) * Use of at least 1 prophylactic medication or a history of having used them. * Onset of disease between the ages of 18 and 60 * Signature of informed consent The population will be randomly divided into the following 3 treatment groups: * Participants amitriptyline or topiramate treatment. * Patients with placebo (Calcium) + topiramate/amitriptyline, * Participants with vitamin D3/calcium+topiramate/amitriptyline. Researchers will compare the groups to see if vitamin D can decrease the intensity of your headache and therefore have a new therapeutic option.
