Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) causes intense, stabbing, electric shock-like pain on one side of the face. Although TN cannot always be cured, there are some treatments available that may alleviate the debilitating pain. Surgery can be an effective option for those who become unresponsive to medications or for those who suffer serious side effects from the medications.
This study is evaluating rimegepant for the treatment of TN. The study is being conducted at Clinical Research Professionals in Chesterfield.
