The
treatment of MS generally falls into two categories: symptom
management and change the course of the disease by modifying
the number and severity of attacks and the progression
of disability.
Studies indicate that early treatment delays disability,
presumably by decreasing the injury to the nervous system
caused by the disease.
There is no curative treatment available for the MS. However,
a number of medications can be used to treat the disease
symptomatically. Corticosteroids are medications of choice
for treating exacerbations. Recombinant Interferon-beta-1b
as well as Interferon-beta-1a are successfully used to
reduce the frequency and severity of relapses. |
