ion in MS patients

According to this article in MedPage Today
HTML http://www.medpagetoday.com/masters-of-medicine/neurology-mastery-in-ms/60841?xid=nl_mpt_DHE_2016-10-18&eun=g345846d0r&pos=12(October<br
/>17), a poster presentation at the recent ANA conference in
Baltimore (October 16-18) provides some evidence that Tysabri
taken in combination with Avonex reduced depression among MS
patients.
Since Avonex is known to cause depression, it isn't clear
whether the Tysabri is cancelling out Avonex-related depression
or whether the patients were suffering from depression that was
unrelated to Avonex.
