Morning I am currently taking Tecfidera and have covid am I eligible for the antivirus drugs?
Hi, assuming you are in the UK then just having MS makes you eligible for Anti Viral’s. No need to go to the GP’s just ring 119 (NHS). Better still if you register your positive Covid test on line (on gov.uk website) then NHS 119 will ring you back within 24 hours to check how you are and arrange anti virals to be delivered to you directly (I did this) recently when I had Covid)

The actual treatment you are offered depends on where you live. When I had it they only offered a single infusion.
There was some reluctance to prescribe as my symptoms of COVID were minimal(I was up to date with vaccinations) but it was causing severe mobility problems with the pseudo relapse so I insisted. Taking a lot longer to shake the pseudo relapse than other ones I have had.
