First seen Oct 31, 2025 · Last updated Jun 12, 2026 · Updated 31 times

Summary

This study looked at whether a common painkiller (diclofenac potassium) works as well as a newer migraine drug (rimegepant) for stopping migraine pain within 2 hours. About 300 adults with migraine took one of the two medicines during a single attack. The goal was to see if both offer similar relief, helping patients and doctors choose the best option.
