MS Treatments

Multiple sclerosis (MS) treatments aim to manage symptoms, reduce flare-ups, and slow disease progression. DMTs (disease-modifying therapies) are the mainstay, targeting immune system activity to prevent new damage to nerves. Common options include injectable, oral, and infusion medications. Symptom-specific treatments, like muscle relaxants or pain relievers, help improve daily comfort. Lifestyle changes, such as exercise and a healthy diet, support overall well-being. While no cure exists, these therapies help many people lead active lives by controlling the disease's impact on the nervous system. Your healthcare team can tailor treatments based on your individual condition.
