rebif

1140169 tn?1370185076 I was just wondering what devices other people use to inject their DMD. I'm on rebif and I use the RebiSmart injector. That's what they sent me and no one asked me what I wanted, but I'm glad because it's very easy to inject with.
1770663 tn?1313992050 I recently started Rebif. My injection sites are not that pretty. They are all red and itchy. It does not hurt when the needle goes in but I sure feel it when the meds start going in.
648910 tn?1290663083 I am really interested because I am not sure how one makes a decision which med to use or to begin with ect. Does the neuro usually allow input or is a case of this is what I am prescribing. I see my neuro on 12/1 to get more results. If he should discuss DMDs (which is probably wishful thinking) I would really like to have my head on half way straight. I am sure others who are not dx would have these same questions.
11924850 tn?1601364171 Hello. Does anyone take Rebif for MS? Is it helping? How long before any improvement? Does anyone think that it's just a false hope with nasty side effects? Thanks.
Avatar f tn Is anyone currently taking Rebif? And does anyone know anything about it? I was just (finally) diagnosed with MS, though my Neuro wouln't say which kind it was... and is planning on putting me on Rebif. It's been 2 years since my symptoms started, and haven't had any kind of relapse or relief in any symptoms, they just keep coming.
Avatar m tn Wan, I'm so glad your friend is ok :) I'm assuming he was in the trial phases of rebif in order to be on it for that long. I do believe it was only made available outside of that in 2002. Or, he was on another interferon. Regardless, this is an excellent question! And, one I've heard before from two friends I have w/MS as well - one on betaseron, the other on rebif for about 8 years.

2146297 tn?1337571292 It is difficult to find those long-term use studies that identify what the medicine does to the body, rather they focus on what it does to the disease. So, is harder to find. What I can say initially though is, complications of the body from DMDs typically stops once medicine is stopped. i.e., those who liver enzymes rise from interferon, see it fall back to normal, those w/high blood pressure from the oral, return to normal as well.
Avatar f tn Does anyone know if there are any statistics showing the effectiveness of Rebif if used only twice a week versus three times a week? My husband will be losing his job come the end of August, and along with that, our benefits. I figure if I start now going to only 2 times a week, between now and the end of August I can make my Rebif last for at least another month. I know this is not the best thing to do, but it appears to possibly be the only solution.
Avatar f tn t want your daughter taking Rebif then stick to your guns and find out what else is available for her. I assume you know her best. Please let us know how your appt. goes. I'll be thinking of you both. Stay strong.
