Acute migraine headache attacks are moderate-to-severe headaches that can cause pulsing or intense throbbing sensations in the head. They are often accompanied by nausea, vomiting, and extreme sensitivity to light and sound.
A novel combination of sumatriptan and rapid release promethazine, CL-H1T is currently being investigated for treatment of acute migraine attacks and the prevention or reduction of Migraine-Associated Nausea and Vomiting (MANV).

Approximately 50%-62% of patients with migraines experience vomiting during attacks.2
For these reasons, Charleston Laboratories is dedicated to developing novel combinations for the acute treatment of migraine attacks — without Migraine-Associated Nausea and Vomiting (MANV).
Nausea and vomiting significantly hinder migraine management by limiting oral absorption of treatments, in some cases causing more burden on the patient’s quality of life.2
