- W2946987255 abstract "Migraine is among the commonest causes of headache in all ages. It is the second most common cause of neurological disability. Currently, antihypertensive, antidepressants and antiepileptic drugs are reasonable preventable medications for chronic migraine. Despite the higher levels of stigma associated with this disease, fewer attempts were made in past regarding the treatment options for chronic migraine. Recently, a novelty treatment was introduced known as calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) monoclonal antibodies as a possible mechanism for the prevention of migraine attacks. CGRP played an important role in the etiology of migraine headaches and was considered as the major peptide behind the cause of the headache disorders. We have reviewed the benefits of these monoclonal antibodies in terms of their efficacy and adverse effects with the available treatment choices. These drugs showed superior results when compared to the placebo and were considered generally safe in the majority of clinical trials. Earlier versions of CGRP antagonists, known as gepants, were less tolerable due to their tendency to cause liver and cardiovascular complications. Thus, in comparison to the earlier gepants, these CGRP monoclonal antibodies were safer and demonstrated excellent tolerability. Short-term side effects were only limited to mild-moderate injection site rash or pruritus, however, their long-term side effects are still unknown. Despite the higher cost of these drugs, we have analyzed the applicability of this drug in the developing countries. Although the quality-adjusted life year (QALY) gained per cost of the drug is still expensive and majority of people may not afford, its excellent tolerability and less adverse effects should also be considered a reason to implement this drug, particularly for resource-limited countries. Moreover, these medications could also become a prototype for future inventions and creations (cost-effective versions for resource-limited countries). In conclusion, this review suggests that CGRP monoclonal antibodies are safer and excellent alternate option for patients with chronic migraine as it has better efficacy, tolerability, and provides a hope to reduce the stigma associated with migraine. All these benefits should be the deciding factors when opting for this treatment and the decision should not be made solely on the socioeconomic status." @default.
