Combination therapy in multiple sclerosis
@article{Milo2011CombinationTI, title={Combination therapy in multiple sclerosis}, author={R. Milo and H. Panitch}, journal={Journal of Neuroimmunology}, year={2011}, volume={231}, pages={23-31} }
The multifaceted pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (MS) involves complex interactions between the immune and the central nervous systems which provide a multitude of targets for therapeutic interventions. Current therapies for MS are only partially effective. One potential strategy to increase treatment efficacy is the combination of two or more drugs with complementary mechanisms of action, which may result in additive or synergistic therapeutic effects. In this review, we discuss the… CONTINUE READING
