Ajovy FAQs

What is Ajovy?

Ajovy is a prescription drug that is used to prevent migraines. It is a preventive medication—it does not treat a migraine. Migraines are severe headaches that can also cause patients to experience other symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and being sensitive to light or sound.

Fremanezumab-vfrm is the active ingredient in Ajovy that reduces the production of calcitonin gene-related peptide. Calcitonin gene-related peptide attaches itself to a receptor in the nervous system to cause pain and inflammation. When your receptors are inflamed, you can experience the symptoms of a migraine. Ajovy works by targeting the calcitonin gene-related peptide to prevent inflammation.

Ajovy is a brand-name injectable that should only be used with a doctor's medical advice. Ajovy injections can be done at a doctor's office or at home.

You should talk with your healthcare provider before taking Ajovy to ensure that you follow proper safety instructions. If you are taking other medications, you should inform your healthcare provider. You should also inform your healthcare provider about any preexisting medical conditions you may have. Your healthcare provider will determine if Ajovy is the best medication to prevent your migraine headaches.
