Approximately 1 in 50 people with MS in British Columbia, Canada, developed drug-induced liver injury with about three months of exposure to interferon-beta IFN-β. The study of adverse drug reactions will help minimize or prevent the toxicity of MS drugs, a major clinical objective.

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most commonly acquired neurological disorder affecting young adults of reproductive age, but a German neurologist runs the only MS pregnancy registry in the world. A multidisciplinary group of clinicians are calling for a North American pregnancy registry to properly assess reproduction and child health, including the impact of disease modifying therapies and the MS disease itself on pregnancy outcome.
