MS is classified into different subtypes which dictates what treatments you are eligible for. These MS disease subtypes are not supported biologically and I am of the opinion that MS is one disease.
What can a neuro offer a patient with SPMS without relapses? There must be many patients in this position, but no licensed therapies. Can a neuro prescribe off-label treatments eg Simvastatin (which is in trial as a potential neuro-protective agent) or Metformin (which is in trial as a potential remyelination agent)?

So helpful, thank you.
