Abstract
We studied 8 patients with definite multiple sclerosis (3 with acute relapse, 5 with progression), and 2 patients with acute optic neuritis, who were treated with methylprednisolone infusions, 1 g daily for 3 days. Visual, brain stem-auditory and somatosensory-evoked potentials were used to test the effect of therapy. There were no manifest changes of the evoked potentials parameters parallel to the clinical effect of high-dose therapy.Keywords
