Overview

Dimethyl fumarate Accord is a medicine used to treat multiple sclerosis (MS), a disease in which inflammation damages the protective insulation around nerves (demyelination) as well as the nerves themselves. It is used in adults and adolescents from 13 years of age with a type of MS known as relapsing-remitting MS, where the patient has flare-ups of symptoms (relapses) followed by periods of recovery (remissions).

Dimethyl fumarate Accord is a ‘generic medicine’. This means that Dimethyl fumarate Accord contains the same active substance and works in the same way as a ‘reference medicine’ already authorised in the EU. The reference medicine for Dimethyl fumarate Accord is Tecfidera. For more information on generic medicines, see the question-and-answer document here.
