Urgent Need for Policy Changes to Improve Migraine Care

 

Home » Advocacy for Canadians who want to improve access to CGRPS

If you’re one of the hundreds of thousands of Canadians living with migraine, you know how painful and disruptive this condition can be. Unfortunately, outdated provincial policies are still blocking access to CGRP medications—new, evidence-based treatments that can significantly reduce the frequency and severity of migraine attacks. These unnecessary barriers leave many people suffering longer, cycling through ineffective medications, and dealing with frustrating delays.

Our easy-to-use letter template helps you speak up and demand change. By urging Canadian policymakers to follow the latest Canadian Migraine Treatment Guidelines (developed by the Canadian Headache Society), you can advocate for earlier access to CGRP therapy and longer renewal periods—improving your care, your quality of life, and the healthcare system we all rely on.
