Inhaled IAV vs Inhaled Eucalyptus for the Treatment of Nausea With Acute Migraine

Double Blind Randomized Control Trial of Inhaled Isopropyl Alcohol Vapors Versus Inhaled Eucalyptus Scent for the Treatment of Nausea Associated With Acute Migraine

The goal of this study is to compare the efficacy and adverse events of inhaled isopropyl alcohol vapor (IAV) versus placebo (inhaled eucalyptus scent (IES) (1:20 dilution in mineral oil) for treating nausea associated with acute migraine attacks.

The main goal of this study is to examine the efficacy of (nausea reduction and time to use of other anti-nausea medications) and side effects of inhaled isopropyl alcohol vapor (IAV) for treating nausea among migraine patients using a double blind randomized control methodology. IAV is being compared inhaled eucalyptus scent (IES) (1:20 dilution in mineral oil) which has not shown benefit for treating nausea or migraine and is therefore considered placebo in this study.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Patients 18 to 65 years old with nausea associated migraines at least twice per month

Exclusion Criteria:

• Patients <18 or >65 years old
• Patients without a diagnosis of acute migraine
