Multiple Sclerosis Infusion Medications We Administer

Many disease-modifying therapies for multiple sclerosis are administered through IV infusion and require clinical monitoring during treatment. TwelveStone works closely with your prescribing neurologist to follow the treatment plan, dosing schedule, and monitoring requirements specific to your therapy.

Our clinical team manages every stage of the infusion process, from medication preparation and administration to patient monitoring and post-treatment documentation. After each visit, clinical reports are shared with your physician to support coordinated care.

We administer a variety of infusion therapies used in multiple sclerosis treatment, which may include:

Medication availability varies by physician orders, clinical appropriateness, and individual clinic capabilities. To learn more about our infusion services or verify treatment availability, contact our team or explore our infusion center services.

Understanding MS Infusion Schedules

Infusion appointments may last anywhere from two to six hours depending on the medication prescribed, infusion protocol, and observation requirements. Treatment schedules vary by therapy, making it important to understand what to expect before your visit.

Typical Ocrevus Scheduling

This B-cell-targeting therapy typically begins with two starter infusions administered two weeks apart, followed by maintenance doses every six months. Confirm this specific regimen with your neurologist before starting.

Alternative Anti-CD20 Protocols

Other IV biologics may use different visit cadences or shorter maintenance protocols depending on the medication, patient tolerability, and site guidelines.

Regardless of the medication, clinical safety protocols remain constant. Every session includes pre-infusion screening for infection risks, active observation for potential reactions, and strict adherence to your prescriber’s monitoring plan.

Tysabri Safety Protocols: JCV Monitoring and Care Coordination

Patients receiving Tysabri® often have questions about JCV testing and ongoing safety monitoring. Your neurologist determines the appropriate testing schedule and evaluates results as part of your overall treatment plan.

Treatment decisions remain under the direction of your neurologist, who considers your medical history, imaging results, and therapy response when recommending ongoing care.

TwelveStone supports these treatment plans by providing scheduled infusions, clinical monitoring, and communication with your prescribing physician throughout your care journey.

Multiple Sclerosis Infusion Therapy FAQs

MS infusion appointments typically take two to six hours, depending on your prescribed medication and how you tolerate the treatment. This includes the initial check-in, pre-medications, the actual infusion delivery, and a post-infusion observation period. Your clinical team will give you a specific time estimate based on your exact prescription and medical history.

Drink plenty of water the day before and morning of your visit to make IV placement easier. Wear comfortable clothing with loose sleeves so the nursing staff can access your arm. Bring an updated medication list, plan for a driver if your pre-medications cause drowsiness, and notify our team if you have an active infection.

Yes, most commercial insurance plans, Medicare, and Medicaid cover multiple sclerosis biologic therapies, though prior authorization is almost always required. Our clinical coordinators work directly with your insurance provider and prescribing physician to manage this paperwork before your first appointment. We also help identify copay assistance and foundation programs to lower your out-of-pocket costs.

Monitoring may include periodic JCV antibody testing and regular follow-up with your neurologist. Testing schedules vary based on your treatment history and physician recommendations.

Yes, you can transfer your care from a hospital outpatient department or another infusion provider to one of our community clinics.
