Common Questions and Answers about Rebif oral
rebif
I have been on Rebif for 8 years but my most recent MRI shoes several new lesions since 2010 and dr wants me to change therapies. I have ruled out going to another type of injection and don't think I should do Tysabri yet. Does any one have experience with switching over to Tecfidera, Aubagio , or Gilenya ? The new lesions are in the cerebellum and have caused walking and balance issues. Thank you in advance for any advice or info.
I have MS and have been taking Rebif foe 7 years. It has worked very well. I just learned that my current drug insurance plan from Humana will not cover Rebif in 2015. What plans cover at least some of the Rebif cost? My copay with Humana was about $300 per month. Would like not to exceed this amount.
She is around an 8 on the Expanded Disability Status Scale and has been on multiple interferon-beta1a treatments, including Rebif and Avonex and nothing seems to be helping. What course of treatment would you recommend?
It is impossible for me, or anyone, to tell whether or not you would have had your attack had rebif been started earlier. Rebif, and other injectable MS medications (the interferons), reduce risk of relapse significantly, but not by 100%, meaning that even if someone is on a medication, they could still have a relapse, but their relapse risk is just less on the interferons.
One the Rebif site it asks how can we tell if Rebif is working. The answer is to keep track of your symptoms and write them down because you may be having a relapse. It also says you may need to try another DMD if you are having relapse. My neuro has asked, unless things become even more out of control to give Rebif a full year. I will say since being on it, I have had no new symptoms.
Look under the question, "How can I tell if my current treatment is working".

Hello, I have to try Rebif before my insurance will consider me for an oral DMD (since I've already been on Copaxone). I don't know too much about Rebif. I do know that it's an interferon and can cause flu like symptoms and I think it's intramuscular injections.
Do the injections hurt? Do you do the injections or does a nurse come out and give the injections? Are the injections in your legs? How often do you have to get the injections?
Optic nuritis 2 times loss of facial movement all kinds of things. I have been on Avonex and now rebif. I recently stopped taking rebif it was making me have a fever and just feel crummy. It's been 5 week s and I feel great.I'm concerned with not taking it I may have a large relapse. Iv changed my diet all natural food any thoughts on this?? Was thinking of starting it again but just don't want that feeling.
I started rebif Nov/12 since being on this medication I have not felt normal,it is like the flare up that will not go away. Prior to Oct.
Hard to answer your question without more information. Why do you have only those four choices? Avonex (which I’ve used for 11 years) and others are notably absent from your list. Avonex, Rebif, and Betaseron have been around longest and have the strongest safety profiles. If your MS is more aggressive, then you may be more inclined to consider Gilenya, Tecfidera, Aubagio, or Tysabri. All of the DMDs are discussed from a neutral perspective at the link below:
