Milestones in Migraine Management: Practical Approaches to Preventive and Acute Treatment
Stewart J. Tepper, MD, FAHS | Merle Diamond, MD
The entire field of migraine is witnessing a profound and unprecedented transformation with new therapeutic options now available to address serious unmet medical needs and patient burden. The new options range from monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) targeting the CGRP ligand or receptor for migraine prevention, to a selective serotonin agonist, to oral CGRP-targeting agents (gepants) now approved for both preventive and acute treatment.
