I have been on Rituximab for 4 years but my provider is switching me to Ocrevus. Has anyone here taken both medications and if so will the side effects be similar? It usually takes me 3-5 days to start feeling "normal" again after my Rituximab infusion and I can feel it wearing off about a month before I have the next one.

I'm suppose to start Mavenclad this weekend, what can I expect in terms of side effects, risk for infection and overall performance of this drug. I'm kinda faithfull/hopefully with a little sprinkle of fear of the unknown.

Copaxone side effects

Morning all. I was using Copaxone for many years, but stopped around three years ago due to experiencing awful side effects. I used to inject myself in privacy when nobody was at home. One occasion I injected into my right thigh, then experienced what can only be described as a feeling that I was h...

Kesimpta side effects

Hi there everyone, My fiancée has got MS. Today she had her first dose of Kesimpta. Is there anything that me as a partner can do to make the side effects easier to bear? Obviously I’m already doing the basics(water bottle, tea, warm food, affection, etc). Any suggestions would help. Thank you !

Hi all. My neurologist has suggested a possible move from Aubagio to Mayzent. Has anyone been through this, and what, if any, changes, side effects etc did you experience?

Hi, I have recently been taken off Ponisimod due to some side effects with my eyes. The MS consultant has suggested either having no treatment or starting on Mavenclad. I've read about it and yes it's seems great taking tablets twice a year for 2 years, but I'm not sure I want any of the side effects the literature states are possible. Can anyone out there offer any advice? What are your thoughts?
