I have had a nasty cold since starting Aubagio 4 weeks ago. Is this a side effect? I am 36 and was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2004. I really have no support with my disease. ## Hi there Angela. I was started on Aubagio a week ago now and I also have had a continuous blocked nose as well as all over flu-like symptoms. My normal aches and pains have doubled in intensity as well, and don't even get me started on the energy and mood dip. ?? MS nurse had warned me of the side effects...but I didn't think I'd get them all at the same time. I have to really fight to keep motivated and I just hope to god that my body gets used to the tablets as quickly as possible, as I really couldn't take 6 months of this. ??

I read all about teratogenic effects for women who consumes Aubagio but I haven´t found anything in literature for men? How does Aubagio reflects on men semen, and do they need to pass therapy with active carbon like women if they are planing family? Konwing that spermatogenesis takes about 6 month.

since taking aubagio my big toe tips are red swollen and painful. Very painful. Could this be from the acid Aubagio creates; should I be concerned about gout?

has anyone drank alcohol while taking aubagiohas? ## Hello, Peg! How are you? Generally, it is best to stay away from alcohol, when you are taking any prescription medication, due to the fact that it can greatly increase the side effects as listed by the FDA, so you may experience much more nausea, dizziness and drowsiness than usual. Thus, one drink may affect you the same as having had 2 and so on. If your doctor does approve of your having a couple drinks, please make sure that you will not be driving, or operating and potentially dangerous machinery. Is there anything else I can help with?

Any feedback on risks of taking Aubagio if you have Multiple Hepatic or liver Hemangioma's? Is it liver "enzymes" that should be tested before going on Aubagio? Any other tests pre-Aubagio? How long has it been available? Are there any clinical studies post FDA approval? Does anyone have substantial improvement or problems since taking Aubagio? Please share. I've got enough illnesses/syptoms don't want to add to them... Thanks ## Aubagio is generally not recommended in someone with severe liver impairment, of any type, due to the fact that it has been known to have a detrimental effect on the liver. How is your liver function? Your blood pressure should also be checked, before you start it. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, fever, c...
