Outcome indicators for the number of pain free and relief patients at 2 h, 2–24 h, 2–48 h post-dose showed that rimegepant had better effects relative to the placebo [free at 2 h: OR = 1.84, 95% CI (1.55, 2.18), P < 0.00001; relief at 2 h: OR = 1.80, 95% CI (1.59, 2.04), P < 0.00001]. And there was no significant difference between the occurrence of adverse events in the experimental and control groups [OR = 1.29, 95% CI (0.99, 1.67), P = 0.06].ConclusionRimegepant has better therapeutic effects compared to placebo and no significant difference in adverse events.
