Postmarketing Hypersensitivity (anaphylaxis, dyspnea, facial or throat edema, rash, urticaria, pruritus), hypertension, Raynaud's phenomenon
Pharmacology
5-HT1F receptor agonist; lasmiditan binds with high affinity to the 5-HT1F receptor and presumably exerts its therapeutic effects in migraine through agonist activity at this receptor, though the precise mechanism is unknown.
Ubrogepant is a calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) receptor antagonist; by blocking CGRP receptor signaling it inhibits a pathway implicated in migraine pathophysiology.
