Summary

The purpose of this study is to study the effect of fingolimod on cardiac autonomic regulation in patients with relapse-remitting multiple sclerosis.

This will be done by measuring heart rate variability from the 24-hour Holter recording and myocardial ventricular repolarisation patterns from the 12-lead electrocardiogram tracings.

The fingolimod treatment is prescribed according to the accepted drug label.
