A Clinical Update on a Preventive Treatment Option for Adults with Migraine

A Science & Innovation Webinar, presented by Abbvie.

Migraine is a complex, chronic disease that results in significant patient and economic burden. Migraine ranks second worldwide in terms of years lost due to disability. Direct annual all cause healthcare costs for a migraine patient is over twice that of a non-migraine patient. Indirect costs from the impact of the disease on a patient's ability to function (absenteeism and presenteeism) total over $35B annually.

Therefore, it is important to appropriately manage a person with migraine who experiences greater than 4 attacks a month (or severe disability from at least two attacks a month) and may benefit from preventive therapy. One of the main goals of preventive therapy is to improve function and reduce disability. Utilizing a stratified care approach to preventive migraine treatment is key to accomplish this goal.

A Non-Surgical 24-Hour Continuous Levodopa Infusion for Advanced Parkinson's Disease

A Science & Innovation Webinar, presented by Abbvie.

Parkinson’s disease is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the dysfunction and loss of dopamine-producing neurons in the brain, along with the accumulation of Lewy body pathology. The condition leads to a gradual progression of both motor and non-motor symptoms. Although oral dopaminergic drugs provide symptom control for about 3 to 6 years, their benefits decrease over time, resulting in a narrower therapeutic window and worsening symptoms.

Vyalev (Foslevodopa/Foscarbidopa Continuous Subcutaneous Infusion) offers the first 24-hour subcutaneous infusion of levodopa-based treatment, specifically designed to help individuals with advanced Parkinson’s Disease experiencing severe motor fluctuations not adequately managed by other therapies.
