Qulipta (atogepant) for Migraine Prevention "Qulipta has given me my life back. So many blood pressure meds, shots, days and days AND DAYS of me laying on the couch in the dark with an ice pack on my head trying to just live let alone be a functional adult. I'm getting my life back. I've been out of work so long my savings are gone, part of the time we're without a utility for a day or two before I can pay to get it back on. I almost lost the house. Credit cards are maxed. Only side effect I've noticed is I have atopic dermatitis on my arms now? It's just raised bumps all over my upper and lower arms, listen I'll take it. Long as they don't turn wild I'll keep on the 60mg a day. I wouldn't wish chronic migraine on my worst enemy."

Qulipta (atogepant) for Chronic Migraine "I have tried multiple different prescription medications for migraine prevention; literally, none of them worked, and I had all but given up hope that I'd ever be free from the plague of chronic migraines. Until my neurologist put me on Qulipta 60 mg/day, I went from approximately 15 migraines a month down to 2. I can't say enough good things!"

Qulipta (atogepant) for Chronic Migraine "I take 30mg/day, and for the first time in thirty years, I'm able to stave off a headache with ibuprofen, which used to be completely ineffective. I'm taking my rescue meds very infrequently - maybe once every month or two - when I used to ration them. I'm waking up feeling rested almost every day for the first time in my life, as well."

Qulipta (atogepant) for Migraine Prevention "I was having headaches all the time. 1-2 a week. On weeks that I had my period, I would have one the entire time. Since starting Qulipta, I have had only one really bad one that caused me to stay in bed all day in the last year and a half. Now when I feel one coming on, I take an Advil and it usually goes away."

Qulipta (atogepant) for Migraine Prevention "I've been on the 60mg dose for about 18 days now. So far, I've been migraine-free. Before medication, I was having around 9-12 migraines a month. I would have brain fog and numbness in my ears. I've struggled over 25+ years on different medications to help. I did have mild constipation for the first 3 days; that has begun to get better. The medication also makes you feel like you're not hungry or thirsty. I am reminding myself to drink more fluids because it can cause dehydration and stinky pee. It did change my pee flow, something that wasn't listed as a side effect but I experienced. At first, I thought maybe bladder infection (UTI) wasn't the case. So just remember to drink fluids. My brain feels clear and no more brain fog. I was consuming so many doses of pain control medication before this new medication. I'm completely off all other meds. Take note of your side effects."

Qulipta (atogepant) for Migraine Prevention "This medicine was like magic for the first 2 weeks I was on it! I got slight auras, but they never developed into pain or other symptoms. I have daily migraines for the last 3 years, and this reduced them to 1 over those 2 weeks, and it wasn't a bad one. However, after those 2 weeks, I had a 2-day long panic attack out of nowhere. I had to go to the hospital, and my blood pressure was 160/129. It went back down 5 hours later after that panic attack subsided. Depression got way worse, and my stomach felt like it had a baby in it without eating anything. Got off Qulipta, and all that went away when I stopped after 4-5 days. Sucks because it was awesome for the migraine! I was also only taking the 30 mg. I still recommend giving it a try! It's better than doing nothing about your migraines!"
