AXS-07 (meloxicam and rizatriptan) is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug and triptan combination in development for the acute treatment of migraine.
- Meloxicam is a selective COX-2 inhibitor non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug used in the treatment of arthritis. Meloxicam is a new molecular entity for the treatment of migraine enabled by Axsome’s MoSEIC (Molecular Solubility Enhanced Inclusion Complex) technology, which results in rapid absorption of the drug while maintaining a long plasma half-life. Rizatriptan is a 5-HT1B/1D agonist approved for the acute treatment of migraine.
- AXS-07 is designed to be a rapidly absorbed, multi-mechanistic medicine for migraine.
