Alopecia signals associated with calcitonin gene-related peptide inhibitors in the treatment or prophylaxis of migraine: A pharmacovigilance study.

Abstract

Although rarely observed in clinical trials, alopecia has been reported in migraine patients treated with calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) inhibitors during the postmarketing period. This study sought to assess whether CGRP inhibitors are associated with disproportionate alopecia reporting relative to other drugs including those indicated for migraine treatment or prophylaxis in a real-world setting.
