Assuming only 30% of patients respond to Fampridine, and only half (I'm underestimating) of all MS patients in the US (400–450K) have some degree of walking disability, then about 60K patients would be candidates for treatment with the drug. Agree that use will be limited to patients with significant degree of disability in case the drug will get heavily blackboxed (risk of seizure).
