Migraines can significantly reduce the quality of life of those affected. Early treatment is therefore advisable if the diagnosis is confirmed. Migraine therapy can be divided into three groups: Acute therapy, prophylaxis, non-drug measures. Monoclonal antibodies against CGRP and the CGRP receptor are now well established for long-term drug prophylaxis. The new up-and-coming generation of migraine drugs includes Ditane and Gepante.
