- DrugBank Accession Number
- DB12228
- Background
Telcagepant has been investigated for the treatment of Migraine. It is an antagonist of the receptor for calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), a primary neuropeptide involved in the pathophysiology of migraine. CGRP and its receptors are found in areas of the central and peripheral nervous system that are important for the transmission of migraine pain. During migraine attacks, CGRP activates these receptors and facilitates the transmission of pain impulses.

- Mechanism of action
Telcagepant blocks the binding of CGRP to receptors within the areas of the central and peripheral nervous system that are important for the transmission of migraine pain and thereby is believed to inhibit the transmission of pain signals that lead to migraine headaches.
