The article presents a brief description and advantages of a new targeted migraine therapy from the class of monoclonal antibodies to migraine pain mediator – calcitonin-gene-related peptide or its receptor (Anti-CGRP(r) mAb). Special attention is paid to the efficacy and tolerability criteria of the Anti-CGRP(r) mAb class. On the example of a clinical case of frequent episodic migraine in a young woman, the problems of choosing preventive therapy, taking into account comorbidity and individual preferences of the patient, are discussed. The presented case illustrates the difficulties that may arise during long-term management of the patient and the possibility of increasing the effectiveness of preventive treatment of migraine when switching from one Anti-CGRP mAb(r) to another drug of this class.
Keywords: monoclonal antibody switching, anti-CGRP monoclonal antibodies, prophylactic therapy, migraine
