๐Ÿงช Study:

Patients โ‰ฅ55 with no relapses in 5 yrs and no new lesions in 3 yrs may stop disease-modifying therapy (DMT).

No significant difference in disability progression.

๐Ÿงฉ Clinical Takeaway:

De-escalation strategy in stable MS may reduce cost and side effects.

Still requires close neurology follow-up.
