Default ACTH shots
Prednisone didn't work for me, methniprednisone (sp) didn't work for me. The other meds weren't out then except for the CRAP meds. ACTH (ACTHAR shots) were tried. They made me feel 100% better and lifted the acute MS attack.

ACTH doesn't slow MS but does lift the attack. To me, they work so much better than these newer drugs with all their side effects. Before ACTH became expensive, I would get a 7 day supply for $45 through NORDS.
