- GLP-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) initiation was associated with fewer emergency department visits and hospitalizations vs topiramate.
- GLP-1RA use correlated with reduced triptan prescriptions and nerve block procedures.
- Patients on GLP-1RAs required less escalation to additional preventive therapies.
- No difference was observed in beta-blocker initiation between groups.
- Results support further study of GLP-1RAs as adjunctive migraine preventive therapy.
