Repository corticotropin injection in multiple sclerosis: an update.

Relapse management is a crucial component of multiple sclerosis care. Acute relapses are defined as new neurological symptoms or worsening of existing symptoms persisting for >24 h that are not attributable to heat, overexertion, or infection. The most commonly used treatment for multiple sclerosis relapse is a 3-5-day course of corticosteroids, primarily intravenous methylprednisolone with or without oral steroid taper. Repository corticotropin injection is also the US FDA-approved option for managing acute relapse, particularly in the patients with inadequate response, intolerability or allergy to corticosteroid treatment; poor venous access; or limited ability to receive home or clinic infusions.
