Abstract

On December 24, 2022, in Moscow an interdisciplinary Council of Headache Experts, held under the auspice of the interregional public organization “Russian Society for the Study of Headache”, discussed the key problems of effective treatment of a migraine attack and the possibilities of a specific drug Kaporiza® (rizatriptan). Despite the development of strategies for the relief of migraine attacks and the effectiveness of triptans as first-line therapy, the choice of a specific drug in accordance with the individual clinical profile of the patient is difficult due to the existence of drugs in various forms (standard tablets, oral dispersible forms, injections, nasal sprays, rectal suppositories). Rizatriptan in the form of an orally dispersible tablet (ODT) has a number of advantages: high bioavailability, fast onset of action, and ease of use. Therefore, Kaporiza® (rizatriptan ODT) may be recommended as a priority therapy for all migraine patients who prefer the dispersible tablet form and who experience symptoms of nausea and vomiting, as well as for patients who have experience of poor efficacy and/or poor tolerability of other triptans. The Expert Council recommends to include rizatriptan ODT in the next edition of the clinical guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of migraine as a first-line agent with Level A evidence.
