摘要
This randomized, double blind, two attack, placebo controlled, crossover st udy explored the efficacy and tolerability of rizatriptan 10 mg compared with su matriptan 50 mg as well as rizatriptan 5 mg compared with sumatriptan 25 mg in t he acute treatment of migraine. Following randomization to one of six possible t reatment sequences, patients (n=1447) treated two sequential attacks, of moderat e or severe intensity, separated by at least 5 days. Patients assessed pain seve rity, migraine asso ciated symptoms, and functional disability at 0.5, 1, 1.5, and 2 h post treatment. Compared with placebo, all treatments were effective. O n the primary endpoint of time to pain relief, rizatriptan 10 mg was not statist ically different from sumatriptan 50 mg [odds ratio (OR) 1.10, P = 0.161], and r izatriptan 5 mg was statistically superior to sumatriptan 25 mg (OR 1.22, P=0.00 7). In general, rizatriptan 10 mg and 5 mg treatment resulted in improvement com pared with the corresponding doses of sumatriptan on measures of pain severity, migraine symptoms, and functional disability and the 5 mg dose reached statisti cal significance on almost all measures. All treatments were generally well tole rated.
