Is beesting therapy of any value in MS?
Another therapy which has had its proponents over the years has been beesting therapy. A 2005 study of 26 patients used live bees stinging patients with relapsing-remitting MS three times a week.1 The researchers found no reduction in disease activity, disability, or fatigue and no improvement in quality of life, so this therapy is difficult to recommend. Others have tried immunising people with MS with bee venom extract.
