copaxone website

Found this website when I was looking up the cost of copaxone. It seems to answer some questions for us newly dx that are looking to do some research about this disease to try and understand what in the world is happening to us !!! I hope I am allowed to post it , sorry if I am not. http://ms.about.

I am new to the website, and new to Capaxone. My question is what side effects does any one have to this stuff. Injection site is to be expected but the general body feeling. It is driving me nuts. I appreciate any remarks and comments.

But his over all travel time is around 10 hours to visit. Have you check on the copaxone website for the manufactures instructions?

Copaxone is made by Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. For more information, visit the Copaxone website, or call Shared Solutions at 1-800-887-8100.

I asked if they had plans to study it in conjunction with Copaxone, but they said no. I did feel a little guilty at the end of the evening. There were probably at least 75 people there, all eating for free. I'm sure that Teva could have given a few months worth of Copaxone to someone who doesn't have insurance for the cost of the dinner.

Hello all. I was just diagnosed with RRMS last week and my doc is recommending Copaxone. I've been trying to do my research to the best of my abilities through Google scholar and the various websites out there, but there is so much information it's a little overwhelming. I know many of you have been through this and may even have experience with Copaxone itself.

You do want to try to give it around the same time each time, but never less than 12 hours apart or you need to skip it. Below is the Copaxone website. It has all the info you need, if you scroll down it has the links to the injection videos! I think it was Lulu who told me about it. I watched it several times before doing my first shot! It was great. Last tip: when assembling auto-inject, make sure to screw bodies back together before removing cap remover.

Hello! I've just been diagnosed with MS and am wondering which drug is better. I've read the material for Copaxone, Rebif, Avonex, and Betaseron. I've narrowed it down to two -- Rebif or Copaxone based mainly on side effects. Which drug is the best?

Of course it’s not on the Copaxone website because they don’t want you to know. Or just google chest congestion with Copaxone.

Been a naughty girl and been poking about my old Universities website, that has access to stuff we cannot get hold of normally. It's been a colaboration between myself and my Son. I never got to the stage of being a Doc of Chem just a master, but my Son is a Doc of Chem so he has more info than me.

Thank you for letting us know about the website, Lulu54! I'm about to go on Copaxone and have had a little voice in the back of my head telling me I should double check to make sure it doesn't conflict with another med I've been taking for years. My neurologist is brilliant and aware of all my meds, but I'm a huge fan of double checking things like this. You are the best!

t have another symptom for 4 years -- then had numbness in my thighs and down my left leg. Did a follow-up MRI and there were new lesions. Started on Copaxone then and 6 months later another MRI showed that the new lesions were gone. I've been on Copaxone since then (2003) and didn't have any other symptoms, until 2008 when I got Trigeminal Neuralgia -- which may or may not be caused by my MS (the doctors can't agree). The National MS Society suggests exercise and a low fat diet.

I just got a phone call from Shared Solutions in response to my email. They told me they are telling people to dispose of TRIAD alcohol prep pads that come with Copaxone. They didn't seem to have a plan to initiate contact with Copaxone users. They just said, "We've been telling people......." Maybe they think it's up to the FDA.

Because the interferons can make depression worse and I have always had major depression I went on Copaxone. I did not mind a shot everyday. Copaxone started as a pill in the testing phase but it did not work it broke down in the digestive system. It is important for the doctor to know her health history and her MS. everyone's MS is different. My MS is super slow progressing so it makes no sense for me to be on the pills which have more side effects.

I can call the copaxone folks in another hour but thought I'd float this question to the group too.... I'm leaving for a week in FL (first time travelling since starting copaxone) and wondering what is the protocol for travelling with sharps - do I take my whole sharps container with me? in my checked back or carryon? any other tips for a new traveler?

Right now, the only FDA approved medications are either injectable or by transfusion, but the infusions aren't prescribed as first-line treatments. Some oral medications, such as Fingolimod and BG00012 are in clinical trials right now. That would be the only way of getting them right now. If you're interested in that, you could do a web search to see where the different oral meds are being trialled.

If you go to the shared solutions website, then go to live events, you can see listings in your area. I get invitations mailed to me. I think it is because I take Copaxone.

I just wrote to the study coordinator for a study being held in Portland, Or. They are still looking for test subjects and a few of you might be interested. I could do the low fat part, but the vegan diet would take me out of the running. I have to have my butter and ice cream. The contact person for this is listed on the NMSS website or if you want more info drop me a PM and I'll send you the contact information.

What is the website online i can visit and still see the forums and add pics to my profile?

LOL! Don't worry, I put in what my due date would be if I was preggers on one website. Everyone there knows I haven't gotten my BFP yet, but I just wanted to input my data! *SIGH* I did this last time I thought I was preggo and I took it off after AF arrived.
