"We are sponsoring a range of studies aimed at exploring the use of AMPYRA within MS even as we look to potentially expand its use into post-stroke deficits and continue to develop other drugs in our pipeline such as rHIgM22 in MS, GGF2 in heart failure, and Diazepam Nasal Spray for treatment of certain epileptic seizures."
