First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 14, 2026 · Updated 4 times

Summary

This study tests whether the drug ubrogepant can prevent menstrual migraines when taken daily for a week around each period. About 496 women with regular cycles and a history of menstrual migraines will receive either ubrogepant or a placebo for three cycles, then all may receive the drug for a year. The goal is to see if it safely reduces the number of migraine days.
