Has anyone been on Mavenclad? I'm needing to change my treatments and this is one of the options my doctor gave me.

Welcome! I expect to be starting Mav soon! My previous med was Ocrevus, and had considered S1P's. We have 2 members that I'm aware of who have taken the first year of pills. There's a Facebook group with new people each week, and some who are on years 3-5. I'm sorry you're having to change meds, it's always an anxious time for me and usually much worse than actually starting one.

Hey kdali do you know of any data from patients switching from a Ocrevus to Mavenclad? My neuro doesn’t know of any and I haven’t found any so far.

A month or two ago there was a small one mentioned in a Substack article or MS Selfie, but only 14 people. I can't find it now and don't remember it providing any decent information except they switched before I am going to (x months after last infusion).

Thanks. It’s so frustrating. I don’t have to make a decision for awhile thankfully. First the IVIG treatment needs time and I need to get rid of the infections I’ve been dealing with for over 5 months.

Jeez 😞 I hope the IVIG speeds your recovery along 🙏 MS is fun all by itself, so I feel for you having infections over and over as well 😱

I'm currently on it. My first round was last year. I highly recommend it. Taking my 2nd round next month.

Me. Had my first year of doses this past January and February. I feel way better than before! I was on Aubagio before I switched and had no idea how bad it was making me feel.
