Anyone using Kesimpta

Hi I’m interested in anyone having side effects from Kesimpta. Have just started my first dose on Friday , it’s now Sunday night and I’ve had 3 days of terrible aches and flu like pains that are way worse than flu like pains . I also have a headache. I was taking abugio before this .
Has anyone had similar experiences of aches this long and can guide me , thanks

  1. I'm sorry to hear that you're not having a good experience with your first dose of Kesimpta. Did your doctor give you any heads up on potential side effects?

    I found a couple resources that you might find helpful. The first is an overview of the medication. https://multiplesclerosis.net/treatment/kesimpta It talks about potential side effects and important things to know about the medication.


    Here's a link to a forum of members talking about their firsthand experience with Kesimpta. https://multiplesclerosis.net/forums/kesimpta-experience


    I hope that you find these to be helpful and most of all I hope that you get relief soon. Keep us posted on how you're doing.
    Best
