Emgality (Galcanezumab)

What is a Generic Drug?

A generic drug is a copy of the brand-name drug with the same dosage, safety, strength, quality, consumption method, performance, and intended use. Before generics become available on the market, the generic company must prove it has the same active ingredients as the brand-name drug and works in the same way and in the same amount of time in the body.

The only differences between generics and their brand-name counterparts is that generics are less expensive and may look slightly different (eg. different shape or color), as trademarks laws prevent a generic from looking exactly like the brand-name drug.

Generics are less expensive because generic manufacturers don't have to invest large sums of money to develop a drug. When the brand-name patent expires, generic companies can manufacture a copy of the brand-name and sell it at a substantial discount.

    Description

    Emgality is a prescription migraine headache medication that works to reduce the number of days a person experiences migraines each month, with these days called migraine days. Emgality only needs to be taken as an injection once a month, but it has the potential for significant reductions in monthly migraine days for users. It is possible for individuals to have upwards of 50% fewer migraine days per month. The active ingredient in the medication – Galcanezumab – binds to CGRP (calcitonin gene-related peptide) in the brain and blocks it from attaching to the receptor that initiates migraine headaches.

    You can buy Emgality with a prescription, and your lowest Emgality cost for it will be when you order medication online from Canada Pharmacy .

    Directions

    Administer 1 Emgality injection at the same time each month. 

    Leave Emgality pen at room temperature for 30 minutes before your injection. 

    Select an injection site - buttocks / abdomen (excluding 2" radius around navel) / front of thighs (at least 2 inches above the knee and 2 inches below the groin) / back of upper arms. 

    Uncap the pen by twisting off base cap and discard it. Do not put the base cap back on. 

    Place the clear base flat and firmly at the injection site and unlock the pen. 

    Press and hold the teal button and listen for an audible click sound. Keep holding the pen against your skin for 10 seconds after the first click sound is heard. 

    Wait to hear a second click sound, and once heard this indicates the Emgality injection is complete.

    Ingredients

    The active ingredient in Emgality is Galcanezumab. 

    Cautions

    Tell your doctor of any history of dyspnea, urticaria, anaphylaxis or angioedema before starting on Emgality. 

    Maximum dosage regulation of 1 injection per month is not to be exceeded; if medication does not provide sufficient reduction in migraine days, meet with your doctor again to discuss different treatment approaches. 

    Doses loaded into pen (with first "click") must be injected at that time. Medication doses will spoil if you allow them to remain loaded into the pen but not injected. 

    Only inject medication at 1 of the four suitable injection locations indicated above, and do not inject at the same injection repeatedly to prevent the risk of lipodystrophy. 

    Interactions

    Negative drug interaction risks are a possibility between Emgality and other Rx or OTC medications, including efgartigimod alfa. Tell your doctor of all medications you are currently taking before receiving a prescription and proceeding to buy Emgality online.

    Side Effects

    Emgality side effects are a possibility and some users may have pain, itching, or skin redness or deepening of color at the injection site(s). If side effects are experienced you may want to discontinue use and talk to your doctor regarding migraine headache injection treatment options.
