Abstract

Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) has been used as an immunomodulatory therapy for the treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS). In the current review, we summarize the up-to-date data related to IVIg clinical trials in MS, and the suggested mechanisms of action by which IVIg modulates the relevant immunological pathways impaired in MS.
