Common Questions and Answers about Rebif pill
rebif
Hi all, my daughter was diagnosed with MS at the age of 14 and she is now 17 and has started with Rebif about 9 months ago. The is on rebif 44 and has no real side effects from the injection any more. But she had to have her gallbladder removed 2 months ago. She has also picked up 15 kilos since she started on rebif even though she is eating healthy and is doing swimming and spinning...no matter what she does she cant drop the weight. Is there anyone else who is having this problem?
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?
Tecfidera has more side effects than Rebif but not everyone gets the side effects. Also Tecfidera has not been around as long so they do not know what long term side effects there are. I would go with the one you will best follow through with if that is a pill then Tecfidera.
-hat does that mean? He is putting me on rebif. He also gave me amantadine for the fatigue. Has anyone taken this? Does it help?
But anyhoo she gave me two medicine to read on betaseron and rebif. Both are injections I was told they have a new pill out that is very expensive and medcaid isn't paying at this time. I'm very uneasy abt the injections. Can anyone tell me if they've taken either one and their experience with it. I want another child in a few yrs and don't want this to stop me.
That is the best outcome. Rebif, nor any of the other three firstline meds, are considered cures. Rebif is an excellent med with a good reputation. And therer are other meds that are coming along soon that will be in pill form, but it remains to be seen who will do best on those versus using the shots.
Now, the reality is that a good proportion of people with MS will need some aid for walking and other activities (like a cane or wheelchair) within about 20 to 25 years after diagnosis.
For instance, what are the monthly costs for medication (e.g. Rebif or others)? What is the official go to info source in Singapore?
Looking forward to your feedback. All the best!
She is in a dilemma to either use the Fingolimod pill or the Fitoxantrone therapy. If you could kindly guide us on which one should be the best for her and or the most effective from both.
Thanks.
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 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.
Yes, I am on rebif for 11 months and must take advil liquid gels
To stave off headache fever that wakes me up!
So the ins company wont pay for Copaxone or Gilynia until my daughter first tries Rebif (i guess because its cheaper for them.) I have a concern with her being on an interferon due to the possible mental health side effects. She is already on Lexapro for anxiety and mild depression. I dont want anything adding to the issue. We have dr app tomorrow to discuss Rebif but I dont want her on it. Anyone have bad side effects with Rebif??? Any advise for me?? Thank you.
I have been on Rebif for four months now, and I am not going to do another shot, I can't handle the side effects. I've tried premedicating and nothing seems to work. How many of you are in the same situation? and what did you do?
I took my first shot of Rebif today. I gave myself the shot and i thought this is great no stinging, no redness, no lump like i had with Copaxone.
Then WHAM!!!! I had abdominal pain about an hour after the shot it lasted for about 6hrs
The only thing i could compare it to was a 6hr nonstop labor pain.
We will see what happens Monday when i take the next shot.
Does anyone else get this abdominal pain on Rebif.
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.
When I went to get my rebif refilled last week was tokd they were out and its on border and they don't kniw when it will come in and could be a couple months. I called every pharmacy in town and got.same.story. Then called rebif and they know.if.no shortage. Is anyone else.having this problem? In meantime I am out so no shots.
