We were delighted to meet with Messoud Ashina (University of Copenhagen, Copenhagen, Denmark) to discuss the long term safety and tolerability profile of atogepant, and its place as a preventative option for migraine.
The abstract entitled: ‘Long-term Safety and Tolerability of Atogepant 60 mg Following Once Daily Dosing Over 1 Year for the Preventive Treatment of Migraine’ was presented at the American Academy of Neurology Virtual Annual Meeting 2021.
