I’m interested because of my pain and also what this means in terms of folxs’ understanding of pain

Education: New treatments for migraine: CGRP monoclonal antibodies, gepants, and ditans

The treatment landscape for migraine has undergone rapid change as new classes of both acute and preventive treatments have been brought to market
