Trial Outcomes & Findings for Rizatriptan for Episodic Dizziness in Vestibular Migraine (NCT NCT02447991)

NCT ID: NCT02447991

Last Updated: 2021-11-04

Results Overview

Episodes in which a reduction in symptom severity from moderate/severe (rating 2/3) at time of taking study medication to none/mild rating (0/1) was achieved. After taking study medication participants reported symptoms using a patient self-report of the severity of vestibular symptoms (vertigo and unsteadiness/dizziness) wherein 0=no symptoms, 1=mild symptoms (no interference with activities), 2=moderate symptoms (had to alter some activities), and 3=severe symptoms (had to stop most or all activities).
