How is Ajovy (fremanezumab) dosed?
Ajovy is given as a once-monthly or once-every-3-months injection. The dosing depends on which schedule a patient and clinician choose.
What is the once-monthly Ajovy dose?
The once-monthly regimen is 225 mg injected subcutaneously one time every month.
What is the Ajovy dose every 3 months?
The every-3-months regimen is 675 mg injected subcutaneously once every 3 months. This 675 mg dose is typically delivered as three injections given back-to-back on the same day.
How should the injection be given (single vs split injections)?
For the 225 mg monthly dose, it is administered as one subcutaneous injection.
For the 675 mg quarterly dose, it is administered as three separate subcutaneous injections on the same day to reach the total of 675 mg.
What if a dose is missed?
For missed doses, patients should contact their clinician or follow the specific instructions provided with the prescribing information to determine the best timing to resume.
Does dosing differ for adults vs kids?
Ajovy dosing guidance depends on the approved patient population in the prescribing information. If you tell me the patient’s age (and whether it is for migraine prevention), I can help map that to the right regimen to discuss with a clinician.
