6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The following adverse reactions are discussed in more detail in other sections of the labeling: Cardiovascular Thrombotic Events and Myocardial Infarction [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] GI Bleeding, Ulceration, and Perforation [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ] Arrhythmias [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) ] Cerebrovascular Events [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4) ] Anaphylactic Reactions [see Warnings and Precautions (5.5)] Chest, Throat, Neck and/or Jaw Pain/Tightness/Pressure [see Warnings and Precautions (5.6) ] Other Vasospasm Reactions [see Warnings and Precautions (5.7) ] Hepatotoxicity [see Warnings and Precautions (5.8) ] Hypertension/Increase in Blood Pressure [see Warnings and Precautions (5.9) ] Heart Failure and Edema [see Warnings and Precautions (5.10) ] Renal Toxicity and Hyperkalemia [see Warnings and Precautions (5.11) ] Serious Skin Reactions [see Warnings and Precautions (5.12)] Drug Reaction with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms (DRESS) [see Warnings and Precautions (5.13) ] Fetal Toxicity [see Warnings and Precautions (5.14) ] Hematologic Toxicity [see Warnings and Precautions (5.15) ] Exacerbation of Asthma Related to Aspirin Sensitivity [see Warnings and Precautions (5.16 )] Medication Overuse Headache [see Warnings and Precautions (5.17) ] Serotonin Syndrome [see Warnings and Precautions (5.18) ] Most common adverse reactions (≥1% and greater than placebo) are dizziness and somnolence ( 6.1 ).

6.1 Clinical Trials Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in clinical practice.
In two randomized, double-blind, controlled trials in adults with migraine, a total of 581 patients received a single dose of SYMBRAVO after the onset of a migraine attack (Studies 1 and 2) [see Clinical Studies (14) ] .
The most common adverse reactions from these two trials after treatment with SYMBRAVO (incidence ≥1% and greater than placebo) are provided in Table
Table 1: Incidence (≥1% and Greater than Placebo) of Adverse Reactions after a Single Dose of SYMBRAVO in Adults (Study 1 and Study 2) SYMBRAVO N=581 a % Rizatriptan 10 mg N=434 b % Meloxicam 20 mg N=433 b % Placebo N=361 a % Somnolence 2 2 2 1 Dizziness 2 2 1 1 a Study 1 and Study 2 pooled b Data from Study 1 only;
Study 2 did not include arms with each individual component Long-term safety was assessed in 706 patients dosing intermittently for up to 12 months in an open-label extension trial where patients treated at least 2 migraines per month with SYMBRAVO.
Of these 706 patients, 496 patients were exposed to SYMBRAVO for at least 6 months, and 132 were exposed for at least 12 months, all of whom treated at least 2 migraine attacks per month, on average.
6.2 Postmarketing Experience The following adverse reactions have been reported with the individual components of SYMBRAVO, meloxicam and rizatriptan, from postmarketing experience.
Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of unknown size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure.
5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Cardiovascular Thrombotic Events, Myocardial Ischemia, Myocardial Infarction, and Prinzmetal's Angina: Perform cardiac evaluation in patients with multiple cardiovascular risk factors ( 5.1 ).
Arrhythmias: Discontinue dosing if arrhythmia occurs ( 5.3 ).
Cerebral Hemorrhage, Subarachnoid Hemorrhage, and Stroke: Discontinue dosing if occurs ( 5.4 ).
Anaphylactic Reactions: Seek emergency help if an anaphylactic reaction occurs ( 5.5 ).
Chest/Throat/Neck/Jaw Pain, Tightness, Pressure, or Heaviness: Generally not associated with myocardial ischemia;
Like all medications, Symbravo can cause side effects. However, not everyone who takes this medication will experience them. Many side effects are dose-dependent and may improve as your body adjusts to the medication. Others may require dose adjustment or medical attention.
