Review follows case of fulminant liver failure
The European Medicines Agency (EMA) has started a review of the medicine Zinbryta (daclizumab) used to treat adults with relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (a disease in which inflammation damages the protective sheath around the nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord). The review follows the death from fulminant liver failure of a patient who was treated with Zinbryta in an ongoing observational study, as well as four cases of serious liver injury.
