Abstract

Spasticity is one of the most frequently occurring symptoms associated with multiple sclerosis (MS). Pharmacological therapy and interventional procedures are the main approaches to treatment of MS spasticity. Nabiximols is an oromucosal spray used as an add-on treatment for unresponsive spasticity in patients with MS. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a major impact on the management of patients with chronic neurodegenerative conditions. During this period, many people have had difficulty accessing hospitals or rehabilitation facilities. We report a case that shows the efficacy and tolerability of the combination of pharmacological treatment and neurorehabilitation in the treatment of MS-related spasticity.
