Background: Triptans selectively agoniste 5-Hydroxytryptamine(5-HT) receptors and are widely used in the treatment of migraine. Nevertheless, there is a dearth of comprehensive real-world clinical research on the safety of triptans. In light of the growing prevalence of migraine, it is imperative to gain a deeper understanding of the true extent of adverse events (AEs) associated with triptans in the clinical management of migraine.

Objective: To evaluate the safety of triptans in migraine patients with cardiovascular disease or elevated cardiovascular risk.

Patients And Methods: We retrieved data from a multistate US-based health system (January 2000 to August 2022) on adults with migraine and confirmed cardiovascular/cerebrovascular disease, or at least two cardiovascular risk factors. We compared the effect of triptans to nontriptan treatments on major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and its components at 60 days of starting treatments.

Background And Purpose: Multiple drugs targeting the calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) receptor have been developed for migraine treatment. Here, the effect of the monoclonal antibody erenumab on CGRP-induced vasorelaxation was investigated in human isolated blood vessels, as well as the effect of combining erenumab with the small molecule drugs, namely rimegepant, olcegepant, or sumatriptan.

Experimental Approach: Concentration-response curves to CGRP, adrenomedullin or pramlintide were constructed in human coronary artery (HCA) and human middle meningeal artery (HMMA) segments, incubated with or without erenumab and/or olcegepant.

Takotsubo syndrome (TS) describes a transient type of dilated cardiomyopathy that mimics acute coronary syndrome (ACS) on initial presentation. Classic TS presents with marked dilation and ballooning of the left ventricular apex with hyperdynamic basal segments. The most frequent etiology is from emotional and stressful triggers; recently, evidence suggests neurologic and psychiatric involvement.

Background: Coronary artery spasm is a well-known potential side effect of selective 5-hydroxytryptamine type 1 (5HT1) receptor agonists and, therefore, contraindicated in patients with cardiovascular disease. SARS-CoV-2 vaccination has been associated with myocarditis, mainly in young men.

Case Summary: A 55-year-old man with longstanding cluster headache, treated with the 5HT1-agonist Sumatriptan for ten years, received the mRNA-1273 SARS-CoV-2 booster vaccine.
