What Causes Constant Cough, Excessive Throat Mucus And Chills After Taking Tysabri?

Hi, I currently take Tysabri and have been dealing with bronchitis for over 2 weeks. My symptoms are getting worse instead of better ( constant coughing, lots of mucus, slight chills) , and I did go to Urgent Care last weekend. They told me to wait until I d had it for 3 weeks before I went back to my doctor, but I don t know if they even knew what Tysabri is. Does the medication make it harder for my body to fight this off on its own?

Hi,

It is not related to tysabri. Consult a general practitioner and start a short course of antibiotics.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
