How long does a VYEPTI infusion take?
The infusion will take about 30 minutes, no matter the dose—but your total appointment time may vary because healthcare providers need time to set up the infusion and get patients checked out when they're done.
Sit back and relax
Use this time to read, check emails, connect on social media, share your experience, or just relax.
Make your next appointment
Schedule your next VYEPTI appointment in 3 months before you leave the infusion location.
Return to your daily activities
Once your infusion is over, you can go about your day.
Tell your healthcare provider if you have any side effect that bothers you or that does not go away.
Sticking with VYEPTI
Speaking up matters—track how treatment is going and keep your doctor up to date. There are different doses of VYEPTI available, and you and your doctor can work together to decide which dose is right for you based on your previous migraine treatment and experience.
Lealani talks about being able to play music and feeling hopeful now that she has more migraine-free days with VYEPTI. In chapter 4, she shares her infusion experience.
Individual results may vary.
0:12 My name is Lealani, I'm a mother, I enjoy crafting and playing the violin, and I'm a Migraine Victor and this is my story.
0:24 I was 5 years old when I had my first migraine attack; they went undiagnosed until I was 18.
0:31 Migraine isn't just a headache; it's a full body experience–it affects everything.
0:37 For me, migraine are devastating physically. I get an aura.
0:45 For me, they’re bright neon colors, bright flashy lights and nauseating.
0:53 When I'm in a migraine attack, I will go to my room and I will close out all the lights, but it gets lonely being by yourself in the middle of a migraine attack.
1:06 It has caused me to lose jobs, it has caused me to not experience things with my family.
1:14 I almost missed my own wedding. There's not anything in my life that migraine hasn't touched.
1:22 Before VYEPTI, I tried everything from natural remedies to a multitude of prescriptions. Before VYEPTI, I could not write things on a calendar and expect to keep them there so I wrote things on sticky notes. I would have a migraine and have to cancel.
1:41 How I heard about VYEPTI getting approved is I watched some of the migraine message boards, and when I heard that VYEPTI did get approved, actually my children and I went out and we celebrated with dinner out.
2:11 Hi Lealani, so you’re here today to receive VYEPTI. As you know, this treatment will be given to you as an IV infusion, delivering the medication right into your bloodstream.
2:20 Great, I’m ready and excited to get this going.
2:23 Okay, let's get started. It's important to prepare for your infusion by making sure you are well hydrated, and if you are wearing sleeves, make sure they are loose enough to roll up above your elbows.
2:33 Side effects are possible. Allergic reactions such as rash, swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat, trouble breathing, hives, and redness in the face can occur. Common side effects are stuffy nose, scratchy throat, and allergic reactions.
2:50 If you start to have any symptoms during your infusion, including the ones I just mentioned, let me know right away.
3:08 Once the infusion starts, it will take about 30 minutes, so you can sit back, relax, you can use this time to read, or use your phone to check emails, or catch up on social media. Feel free to just take this time for yourself.
3:32 Looks good! We’re done.
3:34 That was fast, what do I need to do now?
3:36 Why don't you take a minute to get your things together and you can set up your next infusion appointment 3 months from now, then you're all set to go about your day.
3:47 Before my first infusion, I was a little bit nervous. But for me, it was easy and the 30 minutes went by really quickly.
3:59 It's fantastic to have a real person, like a nurse, get in contact with you and give you great tips about what to expect for your infusion date.
4:14 Since VYEPTI, I have the possibility of waking up without a migraine. And I know that I can do things. I know that I can open my curtains and let the sunshine in. Now, with VYEPTI, I can write things with a felt tip pen, I can play music.
4:38 Now, I feel hopeful, triumphant.
4:44 My family has a saying, “Darn it do it” and now I can.
