Gilenya and Elevated LFTs
Hi All,
Just wanted to know if anyone using Gilenya has had elevate LFTs and if you were stopped treatment.
My levels are currently "4 x normal" however my neuro doesn't seem to be that worried about it.
My concern is that I am screwing up my liver while there are a bunch of alternate DMDs which I could switch to.
Has anyone suffered long term liver damage from Gilenya or does it just mess with the tests and is nothing to worry about?
@cammo I don’t have personal experience but here is a related post that might be worth considering just to see if you can get levels back to normal at all. <a href="https://shift.ms/forums/topic/gilenya-elevated-liver-enzymes" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://shift.ms/forums/topic/gilenya-elevated-liver-enzymes</a>
@cammo, How long have you been on Gilenya ? I'm now about 2 years into it. My first 3 month LFTs test showed them elevated. But, after about 3 more months LFTs test, it stabilized to base line values. Maybe it takes a little longer for some to stabilize.
