For Migraine Prevention "NO positive reduction in daily migraines/headaches...no change whatsoever. I actually can not say ANYTHING good about these kinds of medicines. (CGRPs) I can only say DO NOT take them. I was told the only adverse side effect with Vyepti is a runny nose or stuffy nose. My Negatives - rapid heart rate, chest pain, insomnia, increased nausea/vomiting, bladder-kidney issues, extreme WEIGHT GAIN, hair loss, joint/muscle pain, constipation, fingers, thighs, genital blistering, fevers, mouth sores, dizziness & memory issues. I've had an ablation due to the cardiac issues. I actually told my Neuro 'I don't think Vyepti is working' & she said 'take another dose if you still don't find any relief, call back in a month & we will up the dose!' I had also tried Aimovig for over a year & then it just stopped working. She said 'that can't happen, something else caused it to stop working.' I have never received any relief with Vyepti but have seen crazy negative side effects."

For Migraine Prevention "New neurologist started me on Aimovig 75 mg, then 150 mg, but no improvement of migraines or chronic daily headaches. Asked me to try Vyepti. Vyepti did not reduce migraine frequency, pain level, or chronic daily headaches, but resulted in debilitating fatigue and muscle/joint pain, confusion, concentration and memory issues, vertigo, periodic/recurrent cardiac arrhythmia, and hypertension. Most symptoms resolved over ~6 months, but periodic arrhythmia and hypertension remain. Although Vyepti may work well for some, it is not for all migraineurs."

For Migraine Prevention "7 to 10 minutes into the Vyepti infusion, I got very dizzy and lightheaded and had blurry vision. I got scared, and they stopped the infusion. They called the doctor and started another IV with saline and complained that I didn't eat anything, but I explained I had gastroparesis and didn't digest that early. At any rate, the doctor told them to continue the IV, and I told them I was going home dizzy with blurred vision. I don't like this drug."
