For Multiple Sclerosis "I am 66 years old and I was put on Aubagio 14 mg every other day. After only 2 weeks, I feel like it is the end of me. I feel so ill with headaches, pain in my hips and pelvic area, shivers, no energy to even walk, keep going to bed, I am so tired. I am thinking of stopping because I felt fine before taking Aubagio and full of energy, walking the dogs, riding my motorbike, etc. Having only ever had 2 events, 1 in 1993 and a second in 2011. The consultant says I have more lesions and risk brain damage, but I really wonder as things can slow down. It's not worth feeling this poorly for me."

For Multiple Sclerosis "I have been taking Aubagio for almost a month, and I can tolerate it with very low bothersome issues. I do think my hair is getting thin, lots of itchy feelings on and off. I do get some muscle pain and soreness, but tolerable. I get very tired a few hours after I ingest Aubagio, but a nap and I’m good again. I’m satisfied with the low side effects of this drug."

For Multiple Sclerosis "I got diagnosed with MS in 2018. Haven't got any new 'spots.' What I now have come to recognize as attacks is pain and hurt I've dealt with for many years. So I guess I've had MS a long time before I got diagnosed with it. I'm on Aubagio and gotten lazy, tired, angry, sad, clumsy as anything! It's like everything about my personality has gotten heightened by 100. I used to run half marathons, lift weights, walk, and run in the mountains. That's not happening now. I thought it was because of the MS, but now, after reading these reviews, I'm starting to think the Aubagio is to blame...."

For Multiple Sclerosis "On Aubagio for 18 months. My rating is for oral use and no new recent lesions on MRI results only. Had MS for 12 years, I am 49. Started on Rebif 3 years, then Copaxone 1.5, had horrible skin irritation on both so then Tysabri for almost 8 years. LOVED Tysabri!! Unfortunately tested JC Virus + and had too many risk factors so had to go off of it. I am not a fan of Aubagio. All these symptoms are since starting Aubagio: Numbness/tingling in hands/arms, legs/feet, bladder issues, vision issues (can hardly drive at night anymore), no energy, headaches, and overall just do not feel like myself. So far no new lesions, but a host of side effects. Not sure it's worth it. Do your research!"
