Aubagio ir tecfidera

Hello, I am in the middle of trying to swap to a different medicine, I am currently on plegridy changing due to terrible side effects. I was advised by my ms nurse to change to ocrevus but my neurologist advised no and said the only options are Aubagio and Tecfidera. There are a lot of side effects with both of these that are not settling well with me (pml is a big one) Has anyone got any advise for me please and thank you.

Hello I am on Ocrevus and I love it!! I wonder why your doctor said no. I have been on it for two years and the side effects are manageable. I am sorry you are having issues. I hope it works out for you soon.

Hi Charlotte, I was on copaxzone but had to change due to soreness from injections my ms nurse said tecfidera or aubagio I went with tecfidera as she did say with the aubagio I could get hair loss,I find tecfidera great just make sure you eat something before you take it as if I don’t I get a real hot flush but apart from that all good hope that helps xx
