Migraine Drugs Market Growth & Trends:
The global migraine drugs market size is expected to reach USD 13.34 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 10.9% from 2025 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is largely driven by factors such as a rise in disease prevalence, development of novel therapies, lifestyle changes, and hormonal medications.
Migraine is a debilitating neurological disease characterized by recurrent attacks of severe throbbing head pain that can last for more than three days. Migraine pain may get worse on movement, preventing the patient from carrying out normal, day-to-day activities. In about one-third of attacks, both sides of the head, face, or neck are affected.
Over the past five years, the global migraine drugs market has been relatively stagnant, with the market mainly dominated by usage of generic triptans and other off-label drugs. Majority of the currently prescribed drugs for both acute and preventative treatment are associated with poor efficacy and an unfavorable side-effect profile.
Launch of Amgen/ Novartis' CGRP mAb Aimovig and Teva Pharma's Ajovy is the first step toward revolutionizing the treatment paradigm of migraine prevention. For drug manufacturers likely to enter the market by 2019, such as Eli Lilly, Alder BioPharma, and Biohaven Pharma, pricing will be a key differentiating factor as all CGRP-based therapies have a similar efficacy and safety profile.
