Brief summary
This is a cross-sectional study using the cross-sectional 2023 National Health and Wellness Survey (NHWS) data from the US, with a large and nationally representative population (N=75,007). All data from the NHWS are reported by respondents, who are recruited through an existing, general-purpose, web-based, consumer panel via opt-in e-mails, co-registration with panel partners, e-newsletter campaigns, banner placements, and affiliate networks. All respondents explicitly agree to be a panel member, register with the panel through a unique e-mail address, and complete an in-depth demographic registration profile. This analysis will focus on respondents who self-report having migraine diagnosed by a physician. Individuals who use rimegepant for acute treatment of migraine will be compared with those who use triptans for acute treatment of migraine. Outcomes of interest include treatment satisfaction, healthcare resource utilization (HCRU), quality of life (QoL), work productivity loss, and migraine-specific disability outcomes. Inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) will be used to adjust for differences that may exist between rimegepant and triptan users prior to comparing outcomes.
