A day in the life of a MS warrior ☺

I'm doing research on Aubagio and found some interesting drug interactions I never knew about.  One of major interactions is with HYDROCORTISONE  that is very common medicine.  It says it may increase the risk of infections. Serious infections such as SEPSIS  have been reported !!! I thought sepsis kills at least that's what TV commercials are saying. Using with Acetaminophen >>> increases risk of liver problem. Ibuprofen which I take multiple times a day for previous neck injury,  says can interact and cause liver damage. It says that I might need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring by your doctor.  Mine never said anything about that to me. Think I might be looking for a new neurologist as soon as I tell my hubby. According to drugs.com there are a total of 723 drugs known to interact with Aubagio. 594 of them are MAJOR interactions. Funny don't remember Dr talking about any of those 
My reason for stopping was hair loss. I'm glad I stopped. Says it takes 18 months to two years to evacuate your body. It's stored in your bile how gross is that  I've been off for a week so far so good. If I find out anymore I'll share again.
Best of luck to all.
