This is a bonus from the archives episode of Living Well with MS.

Navigating the range of medication choices for people with MS can be challenging. There are so many factors to consider – from effectiveness to side-effects – so we are fortunate to have Dr. Aaron Boster, an Ohio-based neurologist specializing in MS, as this episode’s guest on Living Well with MS to help demystify the myriad Disease Modifying Drugs that are presently available to manage MS.

Topics and timestamps:

01:30 Introduction to Dr Boster

03:31 Medication levels of efficacy

08:22 Some of the most prescribed disease modifying therapies and how to choose one

09:53 Making the right choice when deciding to start a new medication

17:42 Medium and high efficacy drugs

30:06 Do the most effective medications always have the most side-effects?

33:10 Considering Haematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT)
