Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) antagonist medications have become the mainstay of acute and chronic migraine management in the outpatient setting and look to become more widely utilized by clinicians once the medications become available in generic form. However, their role in practice has remained limited to the treatment of migraines despite the ubiquitous presence of the molecule throughout the body. The literature surrounding expansion of the utility of these medications is limited; however, there have been several promising publications, and further studies are in the process to quantify their utility in the treatment of other pain-related disorders. This is a qualitative review of the current literature surrounding CGRP, particularly in relation to the treatment of non-migraine pain conditions, and looks to suggest potential utility in the field of chronic pain.
