    Rimegepant, sold under the brand name Nurtec ODT among others, is a medication used for the acute treatment of migraine with or without aura in adults and the prophylactic/ preventive treatment of episodic migraine in adults.[7][9] It is taken by mouth to dissolve on or under the tongue.[7] It works by blocking CGRP receptors.[10]

    In the United States, rimegepant was approved for treating acute migraine in February 2020,[11] and its approval was extended to preventing episodic migraine in June 2021.[7] It is produced and marketed by Pfizer.[12] In March 2021, rimegepant was approved for medical use in the United Arab Emirates and in Israel.[13][14][15] It was approved for medical use in Canada in December 2023.[4]

    Medical uses[edit]

    Rimegepant is indicated for the treatment of acute migraine with or without aura in adults and for the preventative treatment of episodic migraine in adults.[7][9][8]

    Mechanism of action[edit]

    Rimegepant is a small molecule calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) receptor antagonist.[10]

    History[edit]

    Rimegepant was developed by Biohaven Pharmaceuticals, which markets the drug in the United States after receiving FDA approval in February 2020.[11][16] Approval was based on evidence from one clinical trial of 1,351 subjects with migraine headaches.[9]

    Society and culture[edit]

    Legal status[edit]

    On 24 February 2022, the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) adopted a positive opinion, recommending the granting of a marketing authorization for the medicinal product Vydura, intended for the prophylaxis and acute treatment of migraine.[17] The applicant for this medicinal product is Biohaven Pharmaceutical Ireland DAC.[17] Rimegepant was approved for medical use in the European Union in April 2022.[8][18]
