Disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) for multiple sclerosis (MS) aim to prevent or reduce relapses and slow down disease progression by altering or suppressing the activity of the immune system 145.
Some ways DMTs work:
- Alemtuzumab: Targets an antigen on white blood cells (T and B cells) to stop the autoimmune response 5.
- Fingolimod: Traps white blood cells in the lymph nodes, preventing them from attacking the nervous system 5.
- Teriflunomide: Reduces the production of T and B cells 5.
The choice of DMT depends on the type of MS and the patient's location, as different countries offer varying treatment options 1.
It's important for patients and doctors to balance the potential benefits of DMTs against their side effects 1.
