I just started Kesimpta this past Saturday, my side effects were awful but gone by next day.  Hoping they will lesson with additional doses.  My dr highly recommends this med.

@MS_283 I don’t really have any side effects at all from it. I do try to superhydrate the day before and that day. I have found that when I’m not hydrated I will get a headache. When I first started I was taking aspirin and allergy medicine prior to the injection but I don’t do that anymore. I haven’t had an issue with the refrigeration. I flew with it once. I just had a little cooling bag then put it the refrigerator once I got to my destination. So I’m not sure that I can speak to that. All in all, I love it! I know that everyone is different but this has been the best experience for me of any treatment I have been on!!

Thanks, all! Just took my first dose and felt like I did after my first Covid-19 vaccine (body aches, headache and raised temp) but they all went away much faster (~12hrs). I’ll focus on hydrating for my next one to see if that helps.

@Mlballard68 @Pelaton @geoleson @Shariso3 @Tracy23 @KatherinePa @MS_283

Hi everyone

How are you doing today?

This thread on Kesimpta got many responses. I would like to invite you all to use the new Carenity feature which allows you the opportunity to rate your treatment. You can leave your opinion on past or current medications. Acting similar to this thread, the tool allows people to look up drugs they are considering taking and see what experiences Carenity members have - does it help reduce symptoms, what are the side effects, how easy is it to administer, etc.

Help us grow our collective knowledge on medications to make the tool useful for everyone!

Take care,

Lizzi from the Carenity team
