The former is commonly related to inmobility or secondary effects from drugs used in the treatment of the disease. [126] Pain or problems with defecation can be helped with a diet change which includes among other changes an increased fluid intake, oral laxatives or suppositories and enemas when habit changes and oral measures are not enough to ...
The processes underlying remyelination are under investigation in the hope of finding treatments for demyelinating diseases, such as multiple sclerosis. As of 2022 the status of possible remyelination acceleration is of trials only, [2] with side effects of possible drugs one limiting issue. [3]
The drugs that can cause hair loss include antihypertensive medications (such as ACE inhibitors or beta-blockers), cancer medications, statins, anticoagulants, antidepressants and medications that ...
A repair process, called remyelination, takes place in early phases of the disease, but the oligodendrocytes are unable to completely rebuild the cell's myelin sheath. Repeated attacks lead to successively less effective remyelinations, until a scar-like plaque is built up around the damaged axons.
The drug targets the role of macrophages in disease progression. [26] [27] Manipulating thyroid hormone levels may become a viable strategy to promote remyelination and prevent irreversible damage in MS patients. [28] It has also been shown that intranasal administration of apotransferrin (aTf) can protect myelin and induce remyelination. [29]
When it comes to injectibal drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy, there are some broad side effects that apply to all injectibals — like swelling, redness or other discomfort at the injection site ...
Hair shedding due to rapid weight loss—and Ozempic and drugs like it can result in rapid weight loss—is certainly a possibility. But data suggests its rare, with hair loss following bariatric ...
Repair processes, called remyelination, also play an important role in MS. Remyelination is one of the reasons why, especially in early phases of the disease, symptoms tend to decrease or disappear temporarily. Nevertheless, nerve damage and irreversible loss of neurons occur early in MS.
