Gilenya (Fingolimod)

Prescription Gilenya contains the active ingredient fingolimod, used in the treatment of patients with relapsing/remitting multiple sclerosis 10 years old or older. Patients who have rapid evolving severe multiple sclerosis or fail to respond from other therapies are prescribed Gilenya.

Gilenya is not a cure for multiple sclerosis but is used to reduce the frequency of relapse and slow down progression of disabilities due to multiple sclerosis. In studies, Gilenya was shown to cut relapses in half, slow down associated physical problems and cut down on lesions as seen on MRI.

In patients with multiple sclerosis, the body's own immune system attacks to coating sheath around brain and spinal cord nerves. Gilenya works by preventing certain white blood cells from from reaching the brain and spinal cord, thus limiting damage caused by multiple sclerosis.

The standard adult Gilenya dose is 0.5mg taken once daily with or without food. The children's dose is body weight dependent. Take Gilenya exactly as prescribed and do not miss a dose. If you do miss a dose, take as soon as possible unless it is almost time for your next dose of Gilenya. Do not take 2 doses of Gilenya at the same time.

When Gilenya is just started, it can slow the heart rate. Your physician will monitor your heart rate and blood pressure before and after beginning Gilenya treatment.
