Treatments for Multiple Sclerosis
The year 1993 saw the release of the first disease-modifying drug, Betaseron®, for multiple sclerosis. By the turn of the century, three other disease-modifying drugs had also been approved. Now with more than 10 products are available, patients not only have treatments but treatment options. It is important to note that none of the currently approved disease-modifying agents are not a cure for MS. However, all of these products can alter the course of the disease by decreasing the number and severity of relapses, by slowing the progression of the disease, and by reducing the accumulation of new lesions.
