Migraine
Migraine remains undiagnosed and undertreated in at least 50% of patients, and less than 50% of migraine patients consult a physician.1
Migraine is the third most common condition in the world, impacting an estimated 1 in 7 people worldwide.2 The financial burden of migraine is huge – it costs the UK economy an estimated £3.42 billion per year.3
AJOVY® is indicated for the prophylaxis of migraine in adults who have at least four migraine days per month, and is the only licensed anti-CGRP therapy to offer quarterly and monthly dosing options.4
