Starting new DMT - Mayzent

So I recently had my annual appointment and MRI. Luckily nothing new picked up on the spine but unfortunately the same can't be said for my brain, as the scan showed a huge new lesion was found. Therefore, my doctor decided its time to switch from Copaxone to Myelenea (Mayzent). Can anyone share their experiences with this DMT? Are the side effects noticeable? Any specific substances I should avoid when on this DMT? Any input would be appreciated.

Hi. I take Mayzent ( also known as Siponimod in the Uk). I didn't have any side effects but I know it can cause headaches for some. I have to have blood tests every 3 months and also eye checks and blood pressure and pulse rate tests as these can be affected I've been taking it a year and have been fine. Hopefully you will be too. Good luck
