Abstract

The treatment of migraine now includes the possibility of using the anti CGRP monoclonal antibodies erenumab, fremanezumab and galcanezumab. Registration studies and real life studies have shown excellent efficacy and extraordinary tolerability of these treatments. Little is known about the possible differences between the three treatments and this observational study was conducted with a view to comparing the efficacy, safety and impact that anti-CGRP monclonal antibodies have on additional parameters such as disability in social, family and work activities.

Keywords: CGRP; Migraine; Monoclonal antibodies.
