  1. aAdjusted for all covariates (including age, sex, insurance type, migraine type, comorbidities, prescriber, prior anti-CGRP mAb and onabotulinumtoxinA treatment history, history of non–anti-CGRP oral preventives, history of acute medication use, and history of inpatient/outpatient/ER visits)
  2. bBoot-strapped confidence interval. Note: sample size is reduced since extending the gap period changes the definition of an episode (e.g., distinct episodes with the same drug based on a 15-day gap may become a single episode and is excluded if the episode begins before June 25, 2020)
