Abstract

Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) plays a pivotal role in migraine physiology, not only regarding migraine pain but also associated symptoms such as photophobia. The aim of the present study was to assess monoclonal antibodies targeting CGRP efficacy not only in terms of headache and migraine frequency and disability but also in reducing ictal photophobia.
