Fampridine (4-aminopyridine) is a potassium channel blocker that has been studied since the 1970s for its effect on amplifying conductivity in peripheral nerves, potentiating neurotransmitter release in muscles and increasing post-synaptic action potentials in the spinal cord. It was tested in other
BACKGROUND INFORMATION Patients with secondary progressive MS (SPMS) and primary progressive MS (PPMS) have significant walking disability and impaired upper limb function due to repeated demyelination and axonal injury affecting the corticospinal pathways. In some patients this motor deficit may be
