Migraine is one of the most common causes of disability worldwide1 and it is often misunderstood.2 More than 1 billion people worldwide are burdened by migraine,3 but the condition remains underdiagnosed and undertreated despite its prevalence.4
In the United States, the prevalence of migraine is ≈ 12%.5 Considered by some to be just a “bad headache,” migraine is a complex debilitating neurological disease that is believed to change brain biology and function and can impact many aspects of life.5,6 Importantly, it can prevent people from tackling day-to-day activities and often keeps them from spending time with their loved ones.5,7
