What do FAERS reports show for eptinezumab?

The FDA Adverse Event Reporting System holds 9,047 reports that list eptinezumab among the medicines taken, through July 30, 2026, each a report of something that happened, not proof the medicine caused it; 63 are coded as a death and 686 as a hospital stay. Counts follow how widely a medicine is used and watched, and they are not a measure of how risky it is. Reports rose sharply in 2024 (2,246, against a median of 156 a year): FAERS counts follow reporting, which news, litigation and label changes can drive, not how often a reaction happens.
