Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to compare the effectiveness and safety of two preventive treatments for chronic migraines: anti-calcitonin gene-related peptide (anti-CGRP) and botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT), involving 80 patients at King Fahad University Hospital.
- Both treatments resulted in significant decreases in migraine pain scores and disability after 9 months, with anti-CGRP showing slightly better results, though not statistically significant.
- Adverse effects were common in both groups, with "headache" being the most frequent; notably, more patients in the anti-CGRP group reported joint stiffness compared to those receiving BoNT.
