Mitoxantrone is used mainly to treat metastatic breast cancer but is also used to treat multiple sclerosis (MS), most notably the subset of the disease known as secondary-progressive MS. In the absence of a cure, mitoxantrone is effective in slowing the progression of secondary-progressive MS and extending the time between relapses in both relapsing-remitting MS and progressive-relapsing MS.

You should ask your pharmacists,I think would be a good idea.
