A new migraine medication is hitting the market.

The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved Reyvow (lasmiditan) to treat migraines.

Migraines are estimated to affect more than 10 percent of people around the world.

Lasmiditan, available in tablet form, has been approved for adults with migraines with or without aura.

Aura is a sensory phenomenon or visual disturbance. An aura can occur as flashing lights, zig-zag lines or temporary vision loss. Auras typically affect around one-third of people who have migraines.

Hematuria is a term used when there is an abnormal presence of blood in the urine. Two different forms of hematuria are gross hematuria (urine is red, identified by the naked eye) and microscopic hematuria (identified only by urine tests). It is also very important to pay attention if the hematuria is accompanied by symptoms such as burning sensation to urinate, urinary frequency (daytime or nighttime), urinary urgency, fever, lower abdominal pain and back pain. More concerning is when hematuria has no associated symptoms at all (painless gross hematuria).
