Para que é usado
Como funciona
The mechanism in multiple sclerosis is unknown. MMF activates the Nrf2 pathway (response to oxidative stress) and is a nicotinic acid receptor agonist in vitro.
Dose habitual em adultos (resumo da bula)
Relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis: starting dose 95 mg orally twice a day for 7 days, then maintenance 190 mg (two 95 mg capsules) orally twice a day.
Gravidez e amamentação
- Gravidez
- Unknown Registry data for dimethyl fumarate (its prodrug) show no rise in birth defects or miscarriage; most exposures were in the 1st trimester. In animals, offspring survival, growth and behaviour were affected at clinically relevant doses. Use only if needed.
- Amamentação
- Safe No direct data, but it is the active form of dimethyl fumarate: low milk levels and data in over 20 infants show no harm, so LactMed finds it acceptable, at least after 1 month of age. US label: weigh benefits. Monitor infant weight gain.
Efeitos adversos relatados
- Flushing
- Abdominal pain
- Diarrhea
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Pruritus
Contraindicações
