Summary

This study is testing whether the drug rimegepant, taken as a tablet every other day, can help prevent migraines in adults who have at least four migraine days per month. Researchers will track changes in migraine frequency over three to twelve months. The goal is to see if rimegepant is effective and well-tolerated for long-term use.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Rimegepant 75 mg orally disintegrating tablet
What this could lead to
If it works, this could provide a new, well-tolerated option for preventing migraines in people who have frequent attacks.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage observational study with only 100 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. Rimegepant may not reduce migraine days for all users, and side effects are possible.
