Event or Problem Description
|
|
Neuronetics received a medwatch from fda (mw5172397) alleging that a patient received tms (neurostar) treatment in 2023 resulted in recurring, unilateral migraines on the same side that she was treated with tms.Additionally, the patient alleges that she has a tic on the left side of her face, which is a common side-effect of a drug she was taking at the time of her tms treatment.However, after stopping the drug, the tic remained.The reporter states that she "can't confidently attribute all the migraines to tms." and there is no information that she has received a diagnosis from a neurologist.
