In Multiple sclerosis (MS):
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a disease of the brain and spinal cord where an individual's own immune system attacks the protective sheath (called myelin) of the nerves. This leads to symptoms like vision loss, pain, fatigue, and improper coordination. Fingomod Capsule helps to suppress the body's immune system, thereby reducing the progression of the disease. It reduces the inflammation of the damaged nerves, prevents further damage, and stabilizes your immune system. It improves muscle strength and helps patients walk better. This makes the patients more confident and improves their quality of life.
Mechanism of action of Fingomod 0.5 mg capsules:
Fingomod 0.5 mg Capsule is a sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor modulator. In multiple sclerosis, the immune cells (lymphocytes) attack the nervous system and impair its functioning. This medication works by reducing the number of lymphocytes in the body, thus preventing them from entering the brain and affecting the central nervous system (the brain and nerves).
