Evaluate the pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of a 50-mg oral dose of diclofenac potassium for oral solution (OS) in a pediatric cohort with diagnosis of episodic migraine.

Diclofenac potassium for OS is approved for treatment of migraine with/without aura in adults, formulated in a soluble powder providing rapid absorption. 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 or placebo.


 Participants 12  to 17 years (n=25) with a diagnosis of episodic migraine with/without aura (3-14 headaches/month) were enrolled. Participants received 50-mg  of diclofenac potassium for OS after fasting on day 1. Blood samples were collected for PK analysis within 15 minutes pre-dose and at 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 40, and 60 minutes, as well as 2, 4, and 6 hours post-dose. After, participants were given a 3-month supply to take at the onset of a migraine attack.
The medicine was rapidly absorbed with a median time to maximum concentration of 15 minutes and a mean peak plasma concentration of 1412 (+/- 846.2)ng/mL. The mean area under the concentration-time curve from zero to the last measurable time point was 82,920.0 (+/-25,327.6)min*ng/mL, and the mean area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity was 84,388.8 (+/-25,993.6)min*ng/mL. Participants took the study drug an average of 10 times over 79 days. Adverse events of arthralgia and motion sickness were each reported (n=2), no patients discontinued due to adverse events.
Diclofenac potassium for OS exhibited a favorable pharmacokinetic and safety profile in 12–17 year old patients with a diagnosis of episodic migraine with/without aura.
