Migraine and Women's Health: Migraine and the Whole Female Patient




CME show

Summary: Host: Jessica Ailani, MD <br> Guest: Dawn C. Buse, PhD <br> <p>Upwards of 47 million people in the U.S. suffer from migraines, often accompanied by widespread personal, professional, and social disabilities. Though a similar prevalence is initially observed between men and women, by mid-adulthood the prevalence of migraine is 3-fold greater in women than men. Newer agents, both injectable and oral and focused on modulating the calcitonin gene-related peptide pathway, have emerged and have proven highly effective in managing both acute and chronic migraine. Join Drs. Jessica Ailani and Dawn Buse as they provide an overview of the changing landscape of migraine therapy, especially as it impacts women across different life-stages.</p>
