A simple and highly sensitive spectrofluorimetric method for the estimation of sumatriptan succinate has been investigated. The suggested method depends on the determination of the intrinsic fluorescence properties of the drug in aqueous systems at λ 350 nm following λ at 225 nm. The linearity range was 10-100 ng/ml, with a detection limit and quantitation limit of 1.2 and 3.6 ng/ml, respectively. The suggested method was sufficiently successful for determination of sumatriptan its pharmaceutical tablets as well as in spiked human plasma. Moreover, the validation parameters were determined following International Council for Harmonisation guidelines. Statistical analysis of the obtained results from the proposed and reference methods showed no significance difference between the two methods regarding accuracy and precision.

Background And Purpose: Pituitary adenylate cyclase activating polypeptide (PACAP) is a human migraine trigger that is being targeted for migraine. The δ-opioid receptor (δ-receptor) is a novel target for the treatment of migraine, but its mechanism remains unclear. The goals of this study were to develop a mouse PACAP-headache model using clinically significant doses of PACAP; determine the effects of δ-receptor activation in this model; and investigate the co-expression of δ-receptors, PACAP and PACAP-PAC1 receptor.

Topological indices, derived from molecular graphs, provide valuable numerical descriptors for the comprehensive analysis of pharmaceuticals. These indices are pivotal in the physicochemical characterization and predictive assessment of various drugs. In this study, we calculate several degree-based topological indices for a range of migraine treatment medications, including aspirin, caffeine, eletriptan, ergotamine, sumatriptan, rizatriptan, verapamil, diclofenac, frovatriptan, and droperidol.

Human experimental studies have shown that levcromakalim, an ATP-sensitive potassium (K ATP ) channel opener, induces migraine attacks in people with migraine but not in healthy volunteers. However, the exact site of action for K ATP channels in migraine pathophysiology remains unclear. This study investigates the role of these channels in the meninges in eliciting behavioral hypersensitivity responses in mice.

Japan has resumed its health technology assessment to decide how to reduce high-cost drug prices. While drug price rules in Japan are comprehensive, they do not necessarily capture differences in product characteristics. This study examined the drug price revision strategy in Japan using migraine treatment with triptans as an example.
