I took Aubagio for 2 years and had no side effects. I had no relapses and no new lesions in the time I took it. I would still be taking it (I got it free from (patient assistance) but when I was 68 my doctor discussed stopping because of age. Since I'd had no new lesions since 2018 I was glad to stop.

The hair thinning, while concerning for many, is usually mild and temporary - most people report that it's not noticeable to others and resolves within a few months. Important note: If you're planning to become pregnant or think you might become pregnant, make sure to discuss this with your healthcare provider. Women taking Aubagio should use appropriate contraception. There are special treatments available to reduce medication levels in your body if pregnancy planning becomes necessary.

To help manage medication costs, Aubagio offers a $0 copay program and provides access to a dedicated nurse with a direct extension. You can contact their support line at (Phone number can only be seen by the question and answer creators) to learn more about financial assistance.
