Avatar m tn Copaxone, Rebif, Avonex, and Betaseron. Other medications are used (like the Solu-Medrol) during attacks, and to help with symptoms (like Provigil for fatigue). There are other medications that are used when the CRAB drugs aren't working, but have risks and side effects (like Tysabri). On this site, there's a lot of information about medication and treatment, relapses, and pseudo-relapses, etc. in the Health Pages (see upper right hand corner).

Avatar n tn Hi Ryan, I want to ask your advice on ativan for longterm treatment of some of the symptoms of MS. I have had Multiple Sclerosis diagnosis since 2001. Took Betaseron for 3 years and quit due to horrible side effects. I have remained stable with not much changes since 2001 except for severe anxiety panic attacks that the specialists feel are connected to the brain lesions I have. I take beta blockers and also 1/2 to 1 mg of Ativan daily.
