Candesartan vs Erenumab

Update: we met with the cardiologist today. She has put through a referral for an urgent CT angiogram but is worried it might take 2 months, so if she can’t get it sooner, they’re going to do a regular angiogram. Also referred for a cardiac MRI and has a holter monitor on. Hoping these tests will

At first I was very biased because I thought maybe I am just overexaggerating a bit. However, the longer I started taking this magnesium supplement, the more I started to realise that this stuff is legit. It has gotten to a point where I don't even experience a severe headache anymore when having a

I had physiotherapy for two years, giving me massages, exercises and dry needling. It sure did improve my health situation, but I noticed that it only had a temporary effect. The therapist then finally suggested me to see a neurologist. Since then I got diagnosed with "out-of-the-sudden" chronic mig

NOTE: Progress updates posted below the main post. I am 59, my wife is 57. We met with Dr. Alan Green in NY on Thurs., and return home next Wednesday (we live in Honolulu) when we will fill our Rapamycin prescriptions (Sirolimus) and begin our program in earnest. Along with Rapamycin, we both curren

(female, 24). 173 cm, 56 kgs, smoker (nicotine). For the past seven years I have been getting what several doctors have diagnosed with “chronic migraines” on a daily basis although the severity changes. A migraine. Every single day. For 7 years. No treatment is working. So you can imagine my desper

BELGIUM (West-Vlaanderen) My wife’s suffering from migraine since 2018. No pain relief found, on the contrary, quantity and intensity raises by day. Since 1st January 2026 she had 3 pain free days in 50 days… average pain index 6-7/10 (not able to function, in bed or zombie). Last 2y she’s working

Is there any clinical reason to use two ARBs together ? (i.e. candesartan 8mg + valsartan 40mg). I can wrap my head around ACEi + ARB combo for extremely resistant and maybe it helps some minority of patients. But this makes no sense to me.

Don't downvote this to oblivion like other comments I've made on this subject in the past. I'm merely curious. I hear all the time that drug prices in the US are really exorbitant in comparison to other parts of the world. So I just wanted to gauge the price between where I am in Australia and the U

Hello everyone! It only occurred to me today the there should be a Reddit group for people with migraine. I’m a family doctor from Chile (excuses for my English!), and I’ve suffered migraines for most of my life. I’ve tried pretty much every single preventive medication. Currently I’m with a monthly

Hi guys! I have this list of things to try (some I’ve!) and I thought I’d share. I included some of the usual stuff, because you never know what can help someone else! :) Please feel free to share your experiences with any of these/ to add some more if you want to! Take - Magnesium - Feverfew - But

So I noticed that aimovig is called erenumab-aooe. The last part of that I think is pronounced **owie** (I can't think of how else that mash up of vowels should be pronounced) and because it's for migraines I think...*well played aimovig* I also noticed some time ago that Forfivo (buproprion 450mg)

In the act, they cite material to which they referred to assist their decision making. One study is from the UK, where vaping is appreciated and encouraged because it helps a lot of people stop inhaling carcinogenic tobacco smoke and so far, has not delivered any notable health problems. It's been a

I got given the option to trial erenumab today while going for my 12 weekly Botox appointment. I had to choose between the two and thought it seemed worth a shot. I’d love to hear from anyone who’s tried it yet, especially anyone that’s also tried Botox. How was your experience? Did it help (espec

Hi r/pharmacy, Pharmacy student here in Australia, where erenumab (Aivomig) is supposed to be approved this November. I just wanted to get ahead of the curve and find out how many patients you see prescribed this medication, whether they are concommitantly taking other prophylaxis, and if they take
