Default Thanks For Info
One more thing..I've been on Rebif for about 3 months. I hate that I need to watchg my liver among side effects. Now I am noticing my walking is a little worse. Does Capaxone have a better recovery?

Thanks!
Mary

If you hear the term "CRABs", that's referring to all of the DMDs as a collective.

C: Copaxone
R: Rebif
A: Avonex
B: Betaseron

Copaxone is a one daily, subcutaneous injection (subcutaneous means, under the skin, or in the skin 'layers')

I'm unsure what you mean by recovery exactly with your question Mary. Recovery with your walking, or side effects on the medication?

Mb,

All the DMD's are not meant to take away current sx and they all take some time to get in your system. I wouldn't try to jump off the Rebif boat yet!

Talk to your neuro!

Peace.

Today: http://www.docguide.com/news/content...2574CF004C9F51

(keep in mind the last line of the article: The current study received funding for data analysis from TEVA, the manufacturer of glatiramer acetate.
)

Still.. as I see it, more positive news on the C front.
