Disease-Modifying Therapy (DMT) and Comorbidity in Multiple Sclerosis
Disease-Modifying Therapy (DMT) and Comorbidity
Disease-modifying therapy (DMT) is integral for managing multiple sclerosis (MS). Recent research underscores that patients with a higher burden of comorbidity experience significantly worse clinical outcomes. Conditions such as heart disease and hyperlipidemia contribute to this dilemma, complicating the management of MS and affecting patient prognosis.
Evidence of Disease Activity
In clinical trials assessing DMT, researchers noted that evidence of disease activity (EDA) is often exacerbated in patients facing additional health challenges. This correlation emphasizes the critical need for effective strategies to monitor and manage comorbid conditions alongside MS treatments.
