Original Title: Dimetilfumarato en esclerosis múltiple: comparación de las diferentes marcas comerciales disponibles en Argentina
Authors' recommendations: CONCLUSIONS No evidence was found comparing the four trademarks of commercially available dimethyl-fumarate in Argentina: Tecfidera® (Biogen), Catira® (Bagó), Dimeful® (Gador) and Tilmurato® (Tuteur). Based on the Argentine National Agency for Drugs, Food and Medical Technology (ANMAT), the four trademarks contain the same drug, at the same dose and they are approved for the same indications. The pivotal clinical trials leading to dimethyl fumarate approval have been conducted with the original trademark Tecfidera®. No clinical trials with Catira®, Dimeful® or Tilmurato® have been found.
