Side Effects

Cough, headache, back pain, or diarrhea may occur. If any of these effects last or get worse, tell your doctor or pharmacist promptly. Slow heartbeat may also occur, especially when you first start this medication. You will be monitored for at least 6 hours after the first dose to make sure your heartbeat does not go too slow. You may also need to be monitored if you restart this medication or after a dosage increase (in children). Ask your doctor for more details. Remember that this medication has been prescribed because your doctor has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects. Many people using this medication do not have serious side effects. This medication may raise your blood pressure. Check your blood pressure regularly and tell your doctor if the results are high. Tell your doctor right away if you have any serious side effects, including: signs of liver disease (such as nausea/vomiting that doesn't stop, loss of appetite, stomach/abdominal pain, yellowing eyes/skin, dark urine), shortness of breath, unusual tiredness. Fingolimod may increase the risk of skin cancer and lymphoma. Tell your doctor right away if you notice any new or changing skin growths/moles, or swollen lymph nodes.

Do not start fingolimod if you already have an infection. This medication may increase your risk of getting a rare but very serious (possibly fatal) brain infection (progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy-PML). Symptoms of PML can seem like a worsening MS attack.
