Hi there,
I'm starting Ty in Jan and Ive done extensive research on it. I haven't found any evidence of weight changes relating to the drug but who knows as we all react so differently to drugs.
Are you on other meds? Many MS management drugs, anti-depressant, Gabapentin, steroids all can cause weight gain so it may be other meds and not the Ty.
Speak to your neuro or MS Nurse for a definite answer
Good luck -
I have had 23 infusions. My weight has not been affected at all.Comment
