Here's Why Biohaven Pharmaceutical Is Soaring Today

In May, the FDA approved Biohaven's lead drug, Nurtec ODT, to prevent migraine headaches in addition to its previous indication as an acute pain reliever. This made Nurtec the only CGRP inhibitor approved to prevent migraine pain and rapidly relieve that pain once it starts. It's also the only oral CGRP inhibitor approved at the moment.
