Brabio or Tecfidera🤔🙃

I was diagnosed RRMS in Dec 2020, the neurologist believes I've had it for 11 years. I've had 2 relapses in 2 years and currently have 1 active lesion (great way to end the year!) I have narrowed my choice of DMT down to Brabio 3xweek or Tecfidera, I like that Tecfidera is more effective and a pill ...
