Indication: UBRELVY is a calcitonin gene-related peptide receptor antagonist indicated for the acute treatment of migraine with or without aura in adults. UBRELVY is not indicated for the preventive treatment of migraine.

Contraindications: Hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any of the excipients, concomitant use with strong CYP3A4 inhibitors.

SAFETY INFORMATION

Posology and method of administration: The recommended dose is 50 mg or 100 mg taken orally, as needed. If needed, a second dose may be administered at least 2 hours after the initial dose. The maximum dose in a 24-hour period is 200 mg.

Special Population: Severe hepatic or severe renal impairment: Recommended dose is 50 mg; if needed, a second 50 mg dose may be taken at least 2 hours after the initial dose. Avoid use in patients with end-stage renal disease.

Special warnings and precautions:  Hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, dyspnea, facial or throat edema, rash, urticaria, and pruritus, have been reported with use of UBRELVY.

Effects on ability to drive and use machines: UBRELVY has no or negligible influence on the ability to drive and use machines.

Interactions: Strong CYP3A4 Inducers: Should be avoided as concomitant use will result in reduction of ubrogepant exposure. Dose modifications are recommended when using moderate or weak CYP3A4 inhibitors and inducers, BCRP and/or P-gp only inhibitors.

Pregnancy and lactation: There are no adequate data on the developmental risk associated with the use of UBRELVY in pregnant women. Based on animal data, may cause fetal harm.
