Overview on effectiveness of erenumab, fremanezumab, and galcanezumab in reducing medication overuse headache in chronic migraine patients.

Abstract

Migraine is a disabling primary headache disorder with socioeconomic burden. Medication overuse headache (MOH) is caused by chronic overuse of symptomatic drugs often observed in migraine patients. The approved for migraine prevention CGRP antagonists erenumab, fremanezumab, and galcanezumab are effective in migraine prophylaxis but there are only few data regarding efficacy on MOH.
