       Cellcept (mycophonolate mofetil), Cladribine, Cytoxan
       (cyclophosphamide), Imuran (Azothioprine), Minocycline, Rituxan
       (rituximab), and statins are drugs that are prescribed off-label
       for MS.
       The National MS Society lists them, with brief descriptions, and
       this list seems important enough to become a "sticky" thread,
       always near the top of the page:
