How much does ozanimod cost?

Ozamod (ozanimod) is a sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor modulator indicated for the treatment of relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (MS) in adults, including clinically isolated syndrome, relapsing-remitting disease, and active secondary progressive disease. It is also used to treat moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC) in adults.

The active substance in ozanimod ozanimod blocks the action of sphingosine-1-phosphate receptors on lymphocytes (cells of the immune system that attack the body's own tissue in diseases such as multiple sclerosis or ulcerative colitis). By connecting to these receptors, Ozamod prevents lymphocytes from traveling from lymph nodes to the brain, spinal cord, or intestines, thereby limiting the damage they cause in multiple sclerosis and ulcerative colitis. Ozamod has shown efficacy in reducing the number of relapses in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis and improving short- and long-term symptoms in patients with ulcerative colitis. Ozamodmay lower your heart rate, and you will need to have an electrocardiograph or ECG (sometimes called an EKG) used to check your heart function before your first dose.
