TREATMENT OF MIGRAINE HEADACHE WITH DIFFUSION OF TOXIN IN NON-MUSCLE RELATED FORAMINAL SITES

摘要

A method for treating a patient with migraine headache includes administering to the patient a therapeutically effective amount of an invertebrate presynaptic neurotoxin in a pharmaceutically safe form. The administration includes extramuscular injection of the neurotoxin to emerging nerve points including foraminal sites for enabling neurotoxin access to concentrated nerve bundles at exit points of the foramina.
