Abstract
Oral fingolimod (Gilenya) is a sphingosine-1-phosphate-receptor modulator that prevents the egress of lymphocytes from lymph nodes. Fingolimod reduces relapses and delays disability progression in patients with relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (MS). We report a patient with MS who developed asystole and sustained bradycardia 21 hours after the first dose of fingolimod.Entities:
