The Association of British Neurologists (ABN) was founded in 1932 as the professional organisation for neurologists in the UK.
The aim of the ABN is to promote excellent standards of care, and champion high-quality education and research in neurology.
Its principal objectives include:
- encouraging nationwide availability of excellent and equitable neurological services regardless of age, gender, ethnicity and geographic site
- increasing knowledge of the nervous system and its disorders
- fostering communication with patient information groups
- providing guidance when required for matters relating to neurology.
Guidelines developed by the ABN in 2001 were used as the prescription criteria for the disease modifying drugs for multiple sclerosis under the Risk-sharing Scheme. The most recent revision of the guidelines was published in May 2025. This update provides a consensus-based approach to using DMDs and provides recommendations on:
- eligibility, starting, monitoring, switching and stopping DMDs
- pregnancy
- equitable access to DMDs
- autologous haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT)
- the use of generics.
It also highlights best practice, where it exists, and discusses future priorities.
Amongst other statements and publications relevant to MS, the ABN have also published guidelines on pregnancy and multiple sclerosis, aimed at ensuring the best evidence-based care for couples planning pregnancy and women during and after pregnancy.
