Canadian Experience with Fingolimod: Adherence to Treatment and Monitoring

Abstract

The GILENYA® Go ProgramTM captures data for virtually all fingolimod-treated patients in Canada, enabling the evaluation of fingolimod use in routine practice. Ongoing patient support and reminders to take the medication, in conjunction with physicians' and/or patients' perception of the efficacy and tolerability of fingolimod, resulted in a high rate of continuation during longer-term therapy.
