The approval was widely expected after the European Medicines Agency endorsed the drug in November. Tecfidera will be the third oral MS drug available in Europe. The introduction in Europe will start in the coming weeks, although its full roll-out will take place over the course of this year and next as Biogen must negotiate reimbursement for the treatment on a country by country basis.</p><br clear="all"/>
