Background and objective : pizotifen is an alternative option for prophylactic treatment of migraine headache.
this study aims to compare the efficacy and safety of pizotifen with topiramate ; one of the most-widely used drugs in migraine prevention.
methods : this was a single blind, randomized, parallelgroup study.
after a 4-week baseline evaluation, patients with episodic migraine were randomly assigned to get either to piramate or pizotifen for a period of 12 weeks.
patients were asked to fill a headache diary through the study.
headache characteristics and the possible side effects were evaluated throughout and at the end of trial.
results: sixty patients aged 20 to 49 were recruited to the study.
with both drugs, the frequency, intensity and duration of headaches were significantly reduced (p < 0.05).
except for headache duration, pizotifen was significantly superior to topiramate in the headache parameters assessed.
total reported side effects were initially higher inpatients who received pizotifen (37 vs.
22 ; p= 0.038); however, persistent side effects were lower for pizotifen (6 vs.
10; P= 0.22).Conclusions : The results of this study suggest that pizotifen is a safe and effective drug in migraine prevention.
