Multiple Sclerosis Drug Treatments

Below is a table of drugs used to treat multiple sclerosis and its symptoms. It only lists drug therapies and does not deal with other forms of therapy - I shall address these in a later section.

It is vital that you are prescribed and take any of these medications in consultation with a fully qualified medical practioner who is familiar with your case history. Many of these drugs have potentially serious side-effects especially in combination with other medications.

The list is by no means complete and new treatments are being researched and coming into use all the time. It should be emphasised that none of these drugs are a "cure" for either MS nor for any of its symptoms. The only medications available at the moment either slow down the course of the disease at best or are palliative on its symptoms.

Very often, the "manufacturer" links in the table take you through to the specific manufacturer's data on each treatment. [The table is still being built and many of the internal links will take you to a blank page - please bear with me as I complete this project.]
