What are people's experiences with Kesimpta?
Kesimpta (ofatumumab) is a self-injected disease-modifying therapy for MS. While specific member experiences with Kesimpta weren't detailed in the available information, some people have reported experiencing "crap gap" symptoms with this medication.
The crap gap refers to a period when MS symptoms may worsen or return as a medication's effectiveness wanes before the next dose. With Kesimpta, some members have noticed this pattern, though it's less commonly discussed compared to infused therapies.
Since Kesimpta is self-injected, staying on schedule is important for maintaining its effectiveness. Here are some helpful strategies:
* Set alarms to remind you of each dose
* Use pillboxes to organize your medication
* Keep medication visible so it's harder to forget
* Stick to a routine where you take it at the same time as other activities
If you're experiencing concerning symptoms between doses or having difficulty tolerating the medication, talk with your neurologist. They can help determine if what you're experiencing is related to the medication or MS activity, and discuss whether adjustments are needed.
Never stop taking a disease-modifying therapy without consulting your doctor first.
