Default BG-12-Tecfidera-Biogen
The FDA approved today Biogen's Tecifera which is BG-12.

Tecifera? How do they come up with these names? I was hoping for something a little more snazzy! . What an odd name.

Anyhow, good luck to all those who start. I know people have been waiting for this for quite awhile.

Just checked. The name is even weirder. It's actually Tecfidera. It sounds like a type of dinosaur!

seems to me that the side effects are quite mild compared to other oral drugs...any thoughts about this?

My thought exactly! Isn't that some racing/betting term? Trifecta?

I want it. And the fact that Teva tried to prevent the FDA's approval makes me want it even more.

Too spensive Ricky, for a maybe it will maybe it
won't pill. I'll stick with LDN, I'm sure it's helping
me and it's pretty cheap, too..

But, if you guys show me it's better, I'm on it like
ugly on an Ape.
