PG - 1939-1946 LID - 10.1111/head.13922 [doi] AB - OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of a single 50-mg oral dose of diclofenac potassium for oral solution (OS) in a pediatric cohort with a diagnosis of episodic migraine; the 3-month safety trial following an outpatient dosing period was also evaluated. BACKGROUND: Children and adolescents often experience migraine pain that is poorly controlled, which may affect their emotional and psychological well-being. Diclofenac potassium for OS is approved for the treatment of migraine with aura (MWA) or migraine without aura (MWoA) in adults 18 years of age or older. It is formulated in a soluble buffered powder that provides more rapid absorption than the tablet formulations of diclofenac potassium. In a randomized, double-blind, crossover trial, more adult patients were pain-free at 2 hours post-dose following treatment with diclofenac potassium for OS than those who received the diclofenac tablet formulation or placebo. METHODS: This was a Phase 4 open-label study that took place at 2 US sites. Participants 12-17 years of age with a diagnosis of episodic MWA or MWoA for >/=3 months and
