Newsbot reported this too.

Here's a copy: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100922/...d_novartis_ms_...

From what I can see the main side effects appear to be macular edema (swelling of the retina), and bradycardia (slow heart rate). I'd like to know a lot more about the side effects, especially what it does to the eyes, before I made a decision.
