Effects of BiTox/AA in the orofacial formalin test in the glyceryl trinitrate (GTN) animal model of migraine. Bar charts showing the effect of BiTox/AA on total time (in seconds) spent on face rubbing in phases I and II (a) and the time course of the face rubbing (b). Face rubbing was evaluated by counting seconds animals spent grooming the injected area with the ipsilateral forepaw or hindpaw in the periods 0–6 min (phase I) and 12–45 min (phase II) after formalin injection. The observation time was divided into 15 blocks of 3 min each (45 min total). In both phase I and phase II, pretreatment with BiTox/AA significantly reduced the GTN-induced increase in face rubbing time compared to pretreatment with vehicle (GTN + vehicle) (*p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, unpaired t test)
