Question for medically knowledgeable people about Copaxone.

I’m being put on Copaxone, which is a daily injectible for multiple sclerosis. What I am wondering is if anyone on here has had to take it or has had someone close to them who has had to take it.

I have read the literature from the company, but would really like some first hand experiences to know what I could be getting myself into.

Don’t know of first hand accounts but try http://www.copaxone.com

You might want to check out alt-support-mult-sclerosis in the newsgroups…there are some threads I found about it via Google Groups

Have you asked your neurologist, or the people in her clinic, if there are any support groups for MS in your area? That’s probably your best bet to find people who’ve got some experience with Glatiramer.

Not that it answers any of your qusetions, but RxList is a great site for obtaining “hard” data about any drug or medication.
