简要总结
The purpose of this study is to determine if Rizatriptan, a migraine medication, lowers motion sickness in migraine sufferers.
详细描述
Migraine sufferers undergo vestibular tests and were excluded if there were clinically significant abnormalities. Following screening, there were 2 experimental visits in which migraine sufferers were pre-treated with either Rizatriptan or placebo. After taking the drug, subjects were idle for 2 hours. Baseline motion sickness and subjective units of distress levels were assessed prior to undergoing sinusoidal-earth-vertical earth axis rotation in darkness at 0.05 Hz. Scores were taken immediately after stopping. Subjects were given a 2 minutes rest and then underwent a motion sickness provoking rotation. Subjective scores were assessed immediately following. Another two minute rest was given and if the subject was able, underwent a second motion sickness provoking stimulus followed by an assessment.

结局指标
主要结局
Change From Baseline in Motion Sickness to Post Vestibular Stimulus
时间窗: Pre and Post Stimulus (about 6 minutes apart)
Scores are based on a scale developed by Graybiel which rates seven subjective and objective signs of motion sickness. The total scores ranged from from 0 to 25. Zero indicating no motion sickness. Greater than 16 indicates severe motion sickness. Trials were stopped if scores were 16 or greater. Scores were taken before and after each rotation.
次要结局
- Change From Baseline in Subjective Units of Distress to Post Vestibular Stimulus(Pre and Post Stimulus (6 minutes apart))
