Kesimpta side effects

Hi all, I am considering switching to Kesimpta. I tried Mavenclad, so this would be my second DMT. I’m looking for any experience you might have if you transferred from Mav to Kesimpta recently. Ocrevus is also an option for me, but the side effects seem stronger. If anyone could share their experiences, I would really appreciate it. The leaflets are a good starting point, but your first hand accounts would be amazing. Thanks in advance.

Kesimpta and Ocrevus are near enough the same drug, both are anti-CD20, their unwanted side-effects are similar. They will knock-out your immune system, so you are then more vulnerable to picking up infections.
