Sequential administration of peripheral nerve blocks and  onabotulinumtoxinA for the treatment of chronic migraine and other headache disorders-A retrospective tolerability and safety study

CONCLUSIONS: In this retrospective chart review, there was no significant difference in adverse events or therapy discontinuation between patients receiving sequential peripheral nerve block(s) and onabotulinumtoxinA injections versus those receiving either peripheral nerve block(s) or onabotulinumtoxinA injections alone. As a result, we concluded that the combination procedure is likely safe and well tolerated in routine clinical practice.PMID:38700250 | DOI:10.1111/head.14725
