Abstract
This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the main types, subtypes, clinical manifestations, and current therapeutic strategies for multiple sclerosis, emphasizing recent advancements and clinical challenges. Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a demyelinating, chronic, autoimmune, and inflammatory disease that affects the Central Nervous System (CNS). Its classification has the following subtypes: Relapsing-Remitting (RRMS), Secondary-Progressive (SPMS), and Primary-Progressive (PPMS), including rarer subtypes such as Clinically Isolated Syndrome (CIS), Radiologically Isolated Syndrome (RIS), Balo’s Concentric Sclerosis (BCS), Schilder’s Disease (SD), and Progressive-Relapsing MS (PRMS). This article divides the various treatments for MS into the following three categories: acute relapse management, symptomatic treatments, and Disease-Modifying Treatments (DMTs). The latter represents revolutionary research in MS, since they are the drugs considered as the best treatment alternatives for this disease.
