Why Gilenya

Only GILENYA® combines proven efficacy to cut multiple sclerosis (MS) relapses in half vs a leading injectable, in a once-daily* pill. Studies showed that GILENYA reduced the frequency of relapses by 52% in a 1-year study vs interferon beta-1a IM, and 54% in a 2-year study vs placebo.

For many people, reducing the number of relapses and slowing down the physical problems MS causes are both important considerations when thinking about a treatment for relapsing forms of MS.

Today, you have a chance to take a stance against relapsing MS....GILENYA might help in doing just that.
