Abstract

Immunosuppressive agents (cytotoxic agents) may be effective in cases of central nervous system autoimmune/inflammatory diseases that do not respond to steroids, plasmapheresis, or intravenous immunoglobulin therapy. Cytotoxic drugs can cause serious side effects. Therefore, it is important to obtain adequate informed consent after a timely decision based on the indication has been made. It is important to be prepared in advance for opportunistic infections and adverse events and to closely monitor the subsequent course.
