TYSABRI is available only through the TOUCH Prescribing Program, which
stands for TYSABRI Outreach: Unified Commitment to Health.
TOUCH is a restricted distribution program focused on safety and developed
with the help of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA):
- Only prescribers and patients enrolled in the TOUCH Prescribing Program can
prescribe and receive TYSABRI
- Only certain pharmacies and infusion sites authorized by the TOUCH
Prescribing Program can dispense and infuse TYSABRI
TOUCH offers more access to doctors and nurses. Your treatment is closely
monitored to help make sure TYSABRI continues to be right for you:
- Once every month at each infusion visit
- Every 6 months by your doctor
TOUCH assigns you your own specially trained Case Manager to help:
- Get you started on therapy and answer questions about your therapy
- Find an authorized infusion site in your area
- Provide information about insurance coverage and possible sources of
financial assistance, if necessary
