Most existing medication treating multiple sclerosis is about damping the immune system so that it does not attack nerve cells. A new approach - using the over the counter antihistamine clemastine - is different in that it helps to rebuild a protective insulation, called myelin, around nerve fibres. Experiments with 50 patients showed promise; more research is needed. See neat-news.com/2023/06/170.php.

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is caused by immune cells, so-called myeloid cells, attacking the protective layer of nerves. Now in experiments with mice, additional myeloid cells loaded with anti-inflammatory drugs have been infused to the animals. This way paralysis could be partially reversed and movement restored.
