Qulipta can help by reducing monthly migraine days with a once-daily, oral dose that works quickly and continuously,” said Michael Severino, vice chairman and president of AbbVie. “We are proud that AbbVie is now the only pharmaceutical company to offer three products across the full spectrum of migraine treatment, which include preventive therapies for chronic and episodic migraine and an acute treatment for migraine attacks.”
