I was diagnosed in 1992 with MS did betaseron shots the most but the bruising was terrible. Pills are great. I thought Aubagio was doing great but it caused me to get anal cancer. I was on the 14 mg for 8 months if I remember correctly. Started having bloody stools. I found a large mass at the lower anal region. It took the doctors almost a year to take me seriously that it wasn't hemorrhoids. ... Show Full Comment

I was on the 14 mg for 8 months if I remember correctly. Started having bloody stools. I found a large mass at the lower anal region. It took the doctors almost a year to take me seriously that it wasn't hemorrhoids. The did a colonoscopy and diagnosed the cancer. Stage one. It also had gone in a possible lymph node so they did the chemo and radiation which almost kills a person. Lasting effects!! I had a colonoscopy 4 years prior and nothing was there. I know with the Aubagio weakening my immune system was the cause for the cancer. NOTHING ABOUT CANCER IN THEIR WARNINGS!! I had the cancer removed and did all the chemo & radiation in 2017. I think now they are warning but not then. I was 55 yrs old then am cancer free now but have lasting affects from it. I will NEVER take MS medicine again. I am dealing with the MS by taking care of myself and resting. The drug company has not reached out to me with any help. I had NO salary during the half year of my treatment. Beware of all the drugs.

I have been on this medication for over 3 years and my MRI's have stayed the same. I haven't experienced a relapse since taking Aubagio. This is the 3rd drug I tried and it's simplicity has been refreshing.

I had to stop taking Aubagio after 2 1/2 years after my most recent MRI showed significant progression. Side effects were high blood pressure, upset stomach, cognitive issues, coarser hair and fatigue.

Aubagio has the worst customer service I have ever experienced. I had a new neurologist because I moved who had not been informed of a protocol for ordering a lab. The doctor stated an aubagio rep has never even been to their office and they were unaware of the protocol. Well, I am stuck with an over 500 dollar lab bill.

Aubagio normally pays for this lab, but told me there was nothing they could do since the doctor did not know the protocol. Very poor customer service. I have stopped taking this med and will never take it again.

Was diagnosed w/MS about 2 years ago, started taking Aubagio right away as my doctor thought was the best. Had some hair loss after first 3 months but it came back w/no problem.
