mandy_waters, is your Dr a specialist in MS? they need to be my suggestion would be to get the latest drugs i.e. Tysabri or Ocrevus, both are infusions. the injectables and tablets are now the older drugs and treatment has moved on, even within the last year. MS Trust and the MS Society have information and the two drugs I mention. good luck

@mandy_waters Hi the link below will give you an explanation of all the DMTs And a description of how they work and are administered. There is a function in that site that you can compare what is best for outcomes. Hope this helps but your MS Nurse or neurologist should be able to help you as well. https://www.mstrust.org.uk/about-ms/ms-treatments/disease-modifying-drugs-dmds You can use the box under your post above marked treatment and that'll take you to what others have said about them. Hope this helps you out a little more.
