Switching to mavenclad?
Hi everyone. I’ve been on Tecfidera since 2019 and I thought it was working well for me, I haven’t had any relapses or even any symptoms at all really. However my most recent MRI’s showed a new lesion in my thoracic spine. Some of my lesions have shrunk however there is the one new one. My neurologist wants to change my medication to mavenclad which I haven’t heard much about. I’m terrified and devastated as I thought I was doing well on Tecfidera. Has anyone been through the same and would be available to chat with me? My neurologist told me to look at it as a “blessing in disguise” as he talks highly of this medication, but I would really like to hear from some actual people taking the medication. I’m also concerned about the cost, my neurologist told me each pill costs $3200 and I’m not sure what kind of coverage is available - anyone specifically in Ontario canada on mavenclad who I could talk to?
