A member asked:
I would like some information about multiple sclerosis medications please?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Several meds: We have 3 oral meds which are rapidly replacing the self injectable products due to efficacy, tolerability, and ease of use. Most potent drug is tysabri, (natalizumab) closely followed by gilenya. Aubagio, equivalent to injectables, but is oral. Tecfidera, taken twice daily, is intermediate. Interferon needle injections being used far less frequently. Copaxone injections safe for pregnancy. Talk to doctor.
