    This component was designed to be used in the education of patients with MS. It includes information on:
  1. what multiple sclerosis does in the body

  2. how it affects the body's immune system

  3. disease demographics

  4. relapse and disability concerns, and

  5. the roles of the immunomodulators in managing MS.


It also includes injection information and side effect considerations.
