Vyepti (eptinezumab-jjmr)
Filled with a prescription, with help on prior authorization and coverage.
Vyepti is a biologic medicine called a monoclonal antibody (a lab-made protein). It attaches to a protein called CGRP (calcitonin gene-related peptide), which is thought to play a part in migraine, and stops it from working.
MedRx Infusion can fill Vyepti with a prescription.
What Vyepti is prescribed for
