Abstract:
On the subject of the treatment of Multiple Sclerosis, JM Charcot stated in 1877 that "the time has not yet come when such a subject can be seriously considered". Fortunately such point of view is no more up to date. This chapter will review the available treatment for relapsing-remitting and secondary progressive Multiple Sclerosis. The immunosuppressive drugs and steroids have been used for many years. Immunomodulation appeared more recently. A review of the evidence on the use of those drugs will be performed.
