Product Description
Kesimpta is a disease modifying drug (DMD) for active relapsing remitting and very active relapsing remitting MS. You have fewer relapses than you might have had without treatment and any relapses you do have should be less severe. Disease progression is slowed. Kesimpta is a highly effective (category 2.0) DMD; in clinical trials, people taking Kesimpta had 50-59% fewer relapses than people taking Aubagio. In clinical trials, MRI scans showed that people taking Kesimpta had fewer, smaller or no new areas of active MS (lesions). Kesimpta also slowed down the build-up of disability associated with MS.
