Migraine medications work differently on migraineurs (migraine sufferers). What may remedy some, may actually be triggers for others. Fortunately, another ray of hope may shine anew on migraineurs who’re in continuous search for a new migraine cure. Levadex, an orally inhaled drug formulated to cure migraine, is being developed by Map Pharmaceuticals (MAP) and is currently at the concluding stage. It contains a new formulation of dihydroergotamine (DHE), an intravenously administered drug used in clinical settings to treat migraines.
How Levadex Works
The individual can dispense Levadex themselves using MAP’s Tempo inhaler. As the drug is inhaled, it gets quickly absorbed into the lungs and bloodstream. The medication flows to the brain and nerves to end the pain, without producing serious side effects. Levadex offered quick and continued migraine pain relief from as fast as 10 minutes and to last up to two days after dosing. The drug puts together the multiple benefits of action that permit DHE to prevent the onset of a migraine, control the pain, reduce the swelling and crush migraine at any point of the migraine cycle. Studies showed considerable improvement in pain relief, nausea and sensitivity to light and sound.
Side Effects
The study indicated no serious unfavourable side effects in the trial. The most common adverse consequences of the drug use were the medication aftertaste and nausea. On the flipside, the most infrequent side effects were chest pain or chest discomfort. Furthermore, the lungs showed no change in activity, as gauged by the spirometry (measurement of the air entering and exiting the lungs using a spirometer).
As the product is still at the testing stage, it may take some time before it becomes available in the market. So to the millions of migraine sufferers, just a little more wait and this promising drug may just do wonders for you. Don’t forget to consult your physician before trying this or any other drug.
