Abstract
Migraine headache is a common and potentially debilitating disorder often treated by physician associates/assistants (PAs) and other providers. With the recent advances in new drugs and device technology for the treatment of migraine, the American Headache Society has released a consensus statement on both preventive and acute strategies for clinical practice. The US FDA has recently approved various types of medications and devices for the treatment and prevention of migraine attacks including several calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) receptor inhibitors, a selective serotonin receptor agonist (SSRA), noninvasive vagus nerve stimulation (nVNS), external trigeminal nerve stimulation (e-TNS), and external concurrent occipital and trigeminal neurostimulation (eCOT-NS), among other pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic options. This article provides a review of migraine prevention and acute treatment protocol, highlighting new approaches to both.
