The efficacy of ATZUMI for the acute treatment of migraine with or without aura in adults was based on the relative bioavailability of ATZUMI nasal powder compared to dihydroergotamine mesylate nasal spray . The clinical trials described below were conducted using dihydroergotamine mesylate nasal spray. The efficacy of dihydroergotamine mesylate nasal spray for the acute treatment of migraine headaches was evaluated in four randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled studies in the U.S. The patient population for the trials was predominantly female (87%) and Caucasian (95%) with a mean age of...
