Items related to Multiple Sclerosis: A Guide to Pharmacologic Treatment
The arena of multiple sclerosis (MS) treatment has changed substantially over the past twenty years. Now, nine different agents are approved for use in MS with several different routes of administration, safety characteristics, and efficacy profiles. For the clinician and patient, the availability of agents means greater flexibility and chances of disease control. However, the expansion of options has also made the treatment of MS an increasingly complex field. This book is intended to help the general neurologist, internist, and pharmaceutical industry agent to quickly become familiar with the current and future options for treating relapsing forms of MS.
