CPE

Richard Wenzel, PharmD, CPPS

Woman suffering from a migraine.

Migraine headache is a major public health concern, being the sixth most prevalent disease worldwide and affecting more than a billion people of virtually every ethnicity, age, socioeconomic status, family relationship, geographic location, or overall health.1,2 Despite migraine’s commonness, this illness remains under-recognized and undertreated, resulting in considerable debilitation, reduced quality of life, pain, and economic burdens.3,4 Opportunities to reduce these adverse consequences include increasing migraine diagnosis, improving patient education, enhancing access to and use of migraine-specific medications, optimizing nondrug therapies, and routine evaluations of care.
