Ajovy

Ajovy (generic name: fremanezumab-vfrm) is a monoclonal antibody used to prevent migraines in adults. It belongs to a class of drugs called calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) inhibitors, which work by blocking the activity of the CGRP protein, a molecule that plays a key role in causing migraines. Ajovy is administered as a subcutaneous injection and helps reduce the frequency and severity of migraine attacks, improving the quality of life for those who suffer from chronic or episodic migraines.

Comprehensive Drug Guide

How Does Ajovy Work?

Ajovy works by targeting and blocking the CGRP protein, which is believed to be involved in the dilation of blood vessels in the brain and the transmission of pain signals associated with migraines. By inhibiting CGRP, Ajovy helps to prevent migraine attacks before they start. This mechanism is particularly effective in reducing both the frequency and intensity of migraines.

  • Pre-filled syringe: 225 mg/1.5 mL
  • Auto-injector: 225 mg/1.5 mL

Typical Dosing

  • Monthly dosing: 225 mg injected once a month.
  • Quarterly dosing: 675 mg injected every three months (administered as three consecutive injections of 225 mg).

  • Avoid shaking the pre-filled syringe or auto-injector.
