Study Arms (2)
Episodic migraine
Patients affected by an episodic pattern migraine(\< 15 monthly headache days) with or without aura according to ICHD-III criteria.
Chronic migraine
Patients affected by chronic migraine (\> 15 monthly headache days with at least 8 days with migraine features) according to ICHD-III criteria.
Interventions
Patients using Rimegepant 75 mg orally disintegrating tablet every other day as migraine prevention
