Migraine Management: Are You Up To Speed? Podcast

Featuring Alan M. Rapoport, MD as faculty, moderated by Gregg Sherman, MD.

Summary

Recent advances in the understanding and treatment of migraine offer the opportunity to individualize the care of patients with this disorder. Multiple new treatment options are available, marking a new era in migraine management. As older therapies for migraine are associated with adverse effects that may be intolerable, PCPs need to be familiar with clinical trial data for newer drug therapies that are both effective and well tolerated, in order to be able to make appropriate management decisions. This course will review the use of acute care therapies to manage migraine, based on therapies’ mechanisms of action, safety, and efficacy data, as well as the patient’s preferences; and preventive therapy to manage patients with migraine, based on therapies’ mechanisms of action, clinical trial data, and side-effect profile, as well as the patient’s preferences.
