Common Questions and Answers about Rebif pregnancy
rebif
I have not been on Rebif, but I have read that you should wait at least 1 month preferrably 3. I would definetly wait the 3 months just to make sure.
And I hope this is a welcome pregnancy. Pregnancy does not complicate MS at all. In fact the majority of women feel much better and have far fewer relapses while pregnant. there is even some data that suggest that pregnancy can exert a favorable influence on the lifetime disease. The main concern is the high likelihood of a relaspe in the 3 months following delivery, so this should be kept in mind when deciding on returning to work or in having extra help available.
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.
He had so much more knowledge and was worth every penny. He told me that Rebif only stays in the system for half an hour but the benefits from it last a month or more. He said i dont have to wean myself off and that i can stop taking it right away. I just need to get a chicken pox vaccination in the next week as i have no immunity and it is very dangerous to catch while pregnant. After that i can start trying for a baby woohoo!
I've been on Rebif for about 13 years. My insurance recently stopped covering it, but offered Aubagio as an alternative--sounded good to me! I'll be switching, but I'm worried about just stopping Rebif cold turkey (which my neurologist suggests).
Has anyone had any experiences with stopping Rebif?
They were high, so at that point my neuro instructed me to go off all meds and supplements, and no alcohol, stayed on Rebif and they remained high when test was repeated. Went off Rebif, stayed off other meds and alcohol, they returned to normal, and remained so after I started other meds again and consumed alcohol again. This is how we could be certain it was Rebif causing the prolem.
