Aubagio (teriflunomide) is an oral disease modifying treatment (DMT) for relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis that is taken once a day. Trials have shown it to reduce relapse rates by around 30% compared to a placebo. Take a look at these forum posts from other MSers who have experience of Aubagio MS treatment.

Aubagio

Hello, everyone :) I'm currently on Rebif treatment. Got tired of the needles, so I asked my neurologist if there's any chance for me to change my therapy... She said that I could switch to Aubagio, but the things I've read about it are not that "jolly"... I was wondering if there's anyone here usin...

Aubagio to Kesimpta & Syptoms

Hi, everyone. I’m currently not taking any DMT, having stopped Aubagio at the beginning of this year and have gone through the washout process before starting Kesimpta next week.

Had the first dose as soon as I got back and I have to say it's not bad tasting at all. I was expecting it to be really fowl after reading other people's accounts of it. I just hope I tol...

New to this group and NC. Moved down here 3 weeks ago. I am on Aubagio

Looking for MS support groups and warriors in the area. I started on Aubagio in October and the last month have been experiencing numbness and electric shock in my feet and ankles. Has anyone else had similar?
