Experiences with

Aubagio

I'm about to start Aubagio. Can anyone tell me about the side effect of diarrhea? Specifically, when it occurs, how often is it experienced and how to deal with it (pepto, loperamide)? Thanks!

I emailed my doctor and ask about Aubagio instead. Im not sure if its the best resort but would love to know any of your experience with Tecfidera/Vumerity and Aubagio? I dont really want to take meds but due to location of lesions (brainstem) dr highly suggested that I should.

He's happy my neurologist put me on Aubagio. Anyway, he says he won't need to see me again (unless there's an emergency) until next year.

For those of you that have taken Aubagio, did you experience side effects and how long did you have them? I can’t function with a constant headache.

I wrote a while back that my dr. switched my prescription to aubagio and you all wrote back with some great information. Just reporting-i just took my 1st aubagio pill about an hour ago! I don’t feel any different. Yet.

My neurologist is putting me on Aubagio, Hopefully starting on it soon. Are there many support groups to help deal with the mental toll it’s taking already? And does it get better or is this going to be the new normal?

However, he said he hasn't seen me reach a plateau, and he's not sure Aubagio is doing as good a job with my MS as I think it is. While I'm used to him sayihng, "I want to see your brain," He said this time, everything but the swallowing problems, were spinal.

I have been having upset stomach problems with the Aubagio. I saw a new MS neurologist the other day and told him about my stomach problems/diarrhea. He asked if I was lactose intolerant and I said yes highly. He told me to take a lactaid pill 30 minutes before taking the aubagio.

Has anyone experienced hair loss with aubagio? My doc wants to switch my meds from Copaxone. She suggested ocrevus and i said no bc I’m scared of pml. So she prescribed aubagio and now that I’m reading up on it it says hair loss is a side effect!

I am looking to switching to Aubagio next month. Per my choice from almost two years on Copaxone. Neurologist is all for it. I’m VERY scared to do so due to the side effects I’m reading about. Any feedback?

I am on Aubagio now. I have a great MS doc in St Louis Mo.

I am now on AUBAGIO. Why do I get tingling in my feet and arms while on AUBAGIO?

I do everything i can think of: exercise, Physical therapy, vegetarian, DMT (Aubagio), acupuncture. Today I noticed I had to pick up my leg to get it in the car. Recent MRIs show no change.

So, I'm on aubagio and reconnecting with the MS world.

Aubagio has potential to damage liver and thin hair. Not too appealing but they say it has greater efficacy than copaxone. I have had two exacerbations this year (just finished round of solumedrol..feel sosososo much better!) Any body on Aubagio and happy with it?

So as the new neuro is wrapping up our appt yesterday, he said to stay on my Copaxone shots and other meds for now but that he may want to switch me to Aubagio later. Wait....what? What happened to not being convinced its MS?

Seen my neurologist today everything looked good , going to keep me on Aubagio for my treatment. Said I have very good upper and lowerbody strength and to keep going to the gym. Do not see him again until December unless I have a flare up. So it was a good day.

I take Aubagio for it.. My hair is falling out in strands. And I go into Surgery on the 18th to get my teeth taken out because they are weak and crumbly from the meds?? not sure if it's MS related or medication related. But I'm enjoying my life so far.

Aubagio is working good for me not going to change the medicine. Do not need to see until next year unless I have a problem. Going to keep going to the strength unlimited gym doing what I can do. I was happy when I left his office.

I messed up took my last pill this morning going to be a week before I will have my prescription. Not concern about just thought I was keep!g up with my refills.
