Numbing spray to reduce Botox injection pain for chronic migraine
Part of Brain & nervous system, Ear, nose & throat, Pain clinical trials.
This study tests whether a numbing spray applied inside the nose before Botox injections can reduce injection pain in people with chronic migraine. The goal is to make the treatment more comfortable without affecting how well it works.

This study compares two treatments for chronic migraine: a nerve block (injection near the nerves in the head) and Botox injections. It aims to see which one works better to reduce headache days and improve quality of life.
This study tests Botox (onabotulinumtoxinA) injections to reduce pain attacks in people with trigeminal neuralgia who haven't gotten enough relief from medication or don't want surgery. You must have frequent attacks (more than 10 per week) and be on a stable medication dose.
This study tests how well Botox works for chronic migraine patients, depending on how long they've had the condition. If you have chronic migraines, haven't had Botox recently, and meet a few other conditions, you may be able to join.
This trial tests whether injections of botulinum toxin type A can reduce frequent, severe cluster headache attacks by targeting a facial nerve area. It’s for people whose cluster headaches have not responded well—or have caused side effects—to standard preventive treatments.
