CGRP inhibitors are drugs that block CGRP from binding to CGRP receptors, a key contributor to the trigeminal nerve pain and inflammation of migraine.
The drugs are aimed at a compound called calcitonin gene–related peptide or CGRP. Four different companies are testing drugs that affect CGRP
Gepants are a class of drugs specifically designed to treat calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) pathway. CGRP is a protein
What are anti-CGRP drugs? These are drugs, usually injectables, which stop the action of CGRP. Common drugs used in the treatment of migraine
CGRP inhibitors are drugs that block CGRP from binding to CGRP receptors, a key contributor to the trigeminal nerve pain and inflammation of migraine. Some are FDA-approved for preventing
Qulipta belongs to the class of drugs known as calcitonin-related gene peptide (CGRP) antagonists which means it blocks the CGRP receptor in the body. CGRP is a protein made naturally in the body. CGRP is a protein made naturally in the body.

These investigators also showed that increased CGRP markers and decreased drug potency were prevented by the administration of CGRP 8-37, a competitive CGRP-receptor antagonist. This suggests that overactivation of CGRP receptors in the dorsal horn contributes to the induction of opioid analgesic tolerance.
In part 1 of this blog we learned about the new class of drugs for migraine prophylaxis or prevention – the CGRP monoclonal antibodies (CGRP-mAbs or CGRP
