"This medication is AMAZING! I feel so much better now than when I was taking Ocrevus or Kesimpta. AND no breast cancer warning! That's huge! Thank you! I hope more people can try this, it has been fantastic for me."

"This med has been amazing for me. I am so happy my Dr. switched my medication. So far, my infusions went well minus chills and a slight headache during that didn't last long. I had so much energy after that, I was able to run errands after my first infusion and drive home, which is 50 minutes away from the hospital. So happy... I feel like I can get my life back."

"Just had my first dose today. Head was a bit itchy and had a headache. After I got home, I had energy. I felt like the depression I was in lifted in one day. I don't know if that was psychosomatic or from the medication. We will see how tomorrow goes."

"1st dose went well. Had a sore throat for two days and was tired but that went away within 3 days. 2nd dose was horrible. Started feeling extremely nauseous about 30 minutes into the infusion, followed by feeling extremely hot and sweating profusely. Infusion was stopped, and my blood pressure dropped extremely low, so I received two epipens and oxygen because I also couldn’t breathe properly along with other meds. I will not be trying any DMTs again."

"This is my 3rd infusion with Briumvi and my symptoms haven't gotten better. It's like I have the flu for weeks. Chills, vomiting, pounding head, and extreme weakness. It's very frustrating. Maybe if I give it time, it will get better."

"I had my first infusion a month ago. I had some side effects and reactions in my throat on the day of my first infusion, and my arm was hurting because the needle was bent when they pulled it out. However, I was given a few drugs and I felt okay. Two weeks later, I had my 2nd infusion. Although I told them I felt some discomfort in my arm, they assured me that the infusion was going fine. My throat didn't bother me as much as the first time. It is too soon to give a complete assessment of the medication, but I must tell you, I haven't had a decent sleep."

"I wanted to update my first review for Briumvi. It has been about 2 months now and I still feel great! I hope more insurance companies start covering this, it's been a miracle for me!!!"

"I had my first infusion on January 17th. The only side effect was a little tightness in my chest but it didn't last long. I was fine otherwise. Look forward to the next infusion."

"1st dose went well till 1 week and a half in. I was stiff as a board in pain. (joints, muscles had to use my cane for 2 days) until I saw my neurologist who gave me Prednisone steroids which helped incredibly within 3 days. 2nd dose I turned beat red and broke out in worse hives than before and major tachycardia, it scared my nurse. Almost 1 month later: My heart still feels heavy and cough is annoying, but eyesight is better. Not as blurry I notice my floaters now though. Doc said to see how this goes, checkup is in 2 weeks. Still optimistic! God's got us my friends."
