The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) has now recommended the use of the oral Multiple Sclerosis drug Aubagio from Sanofi/Genzyme. Aubagio (teriflunomide) is recommended for treating adults with active relapsing-remitting MS. Sanofi has to provide the drug with the discount agreed in the patient access scheme. This is a change by NICE from the decision to not recommend teriflunomide made in the previous draft consultation document issued in September 2013.
