Could a common supplement tame multiple sclerosis?

NCT ID NCT07263607

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests whether adding taurine, a natural amino acid, to standard multiple sclerosis (MS) medications can improve outcomes. About 80 adults with relapsing-remitting MS will either continue their usual drugs or add daily taurine for 24 months. Researchers will track brain lesions, relapses, disability, and gut health to see if taurine offers extra protection.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

taurine

What this could lead to

If it works, adding taurine to standard MS therapy could help reduce brain damage, relapses, and slow disability progression.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-phase trial with only 80 people. Taurine may show no added benefit over standard drugs, and results may not apply to all MS patients.
