Which forms do disease-modifying therapies for multiple sclerosis come in?

• A. None of the above
• B. Only infusion therapies
• C. Only oral meds
• D. Injectable meds, oral meds, and infusion therapies

Answer: (D)

DMTs for multiple sclerosis are available in three administration forms: injectable, oral, and infusion. This reflects how different drugs are designed to be delivered—some are given by self-injection or with a nurse, some are taken as pills, and some are administered intravenously in a clinic. For example, injectable options include interferon beta and glatiramer acetate; oral options include fingolimod, dimethyl fumarate, teriflunomide, and cladribine tablets; infusion options include natalizumab, ocrelizumab, and alemtuzumab. Because therapies exist across all three forms, the statement that they come in injectable, oral, and infusion forms is correct.
