9 out of 10 patients
Demonstrated sustained pain relief and pain freedom at 24 hours
 (Hershey et al. 2020)
23% of patients
Achieved higher relief than with medication
 (Hershey et al. 2021)
After 2 months*
Reduction of 4 migraine days per month
(Tepper et al. 2023)
≥50% of patients
Experienced ≥50% reduction in moderate to severe headache days
(Tepper et al. 2023)
Favorable safety profile
No device-related adverse events reported in the clinical study
(Tepper et al. 2023)
2 out of 3 patients
Achieved pain relief with Nerivio
(Yarnitsky et al. 2019)

How Nerivio Works

A Novel Mechanism of Action

Nerivio works by stimulating the Aδ and C fibers in the upper arm, triggering the Conditioned Pain Modulation (CPM) system. This activates the descending inhibitory pain pathway allowing for the release of serotonin and norepinephrine, globally impacting pain.

Who Can Benefit the Most

The Nerivio Patient Profile

Nerivio may be an optimal migraine management option for your patients, particularly for those in the following populations:

  • Children and adolescents (ages 8 and up)
  • Women of childbearing age
  • People with comorbidities
  • Veterans with migraine related challenges
  • Individuals who need or prefer a drug-free solution

Doctors’ Recommendations

Watch Nerivio users share their migraine journeys and Nerivio’s impact on their lives. None have been compensated for sharing their Nerivio experience.

“With Nerivio, my patients have had a life-changing quality of life. Nerivio is not a want - it’s a need. This safe treatment for migraine is a vital breakthrough. It is my responsibility to let colleagues and patients know about this important therapy.”

Kathy Fields, MD
Co-founder of Rodan+ Fields

“A large study of many patients over a lengthy period of time and multiple treatments, reinforces that REN [Nerivio] provides a safe, efficacious and stable treatment for acute migraine, both as a standalone and as an adjunct therapy."

Dr. Jessica Ailani, MD
Director of the MedStar Georgetown Headache Center and Professor of Clinical Neurology in the Department of Neurology

“Chronic migraine patients experience more frequent and severe attacks than episodic migraine patients. Non-pharmacological interventions such as REN [Nerivio] help meet this need by providing a drug free treatment option.”

Brian M. Grosberg, MD
Director of the Hartford Healthcare Headache Program in Connecticut and Professor of Neurology at the University of Connecticut School of Medicine

“Research shows this [REN, Nerivio] to be comparable with triptans. Pain relief at 2 hours was 67%, which is better than with many triptans.”

Alan M. Rapoport, MD
Clinical Professor of Neurology at The David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, and a Past-President of the International Headache Society
