 Post subject: Rebif and painful soreness
PostPosted: Thu Oct 18, 2012 8:33 pm 
So I took my first full dosage (44 mcg) of Rebif last night, and whereas before I could deal with the soreness during the titration dosages, I am having trouble doing anything today. Last night I could hardly sleep through it and today not even acetaminophen or my heating pad are helping.

Suggestions for what I can do to help deal with the pain? I don't know how I am going to be able to ...

In MS treated with interferon beta, early disease activity predicts poor outcome

Image


After 15 years of follow-up, patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) who display disease activity despite treatment with interferon (IFN)β-1a tend to have unfavorable long-term outcomes, according to research published online Sept. 13 in the Annals of Neurology.

Robert A. Bermel, M.D., of the Cleveland Clinic, and colleagues conducted a multicenter, observational, 15-year follow-up study involving 136 patients with RRMS, who had ...

 Post subject: Anyone need 44mcg Rebif prefilled needles?
PostPosted: Sun Aug 26, 2012 7:40 pm 
I was recently diagnosed with MS back in June. My neurologist put me on Rebif and although I've heard a lot of people benefit from this drug, it was just not the right drug for me and gave me flare ups so I am stuck with a months supply minus one needle and instead of throwing them all away I figured I would see if anyone may need them? I'm not looking for money I ...

PostPosted: Fri May 25, 2012 9:36 pm 
Greetings all- I've been on Rebif for over two years now and while I've managed to deal with any flu-like symptoms, I still sometimes feel worn out and "wifty" the next day. I do my injections at night with 400-600 mg of Ibuprofen and drink lots of water during the day. Any suggestions?

Rebif use following first sign of possible MS reduces likelihood of progression to MS

Image


People who received injections of the multiple sclerosis (MS) drug interferon beta-1a soon after their first signs of possible MS were less likely to progress to clinically definite MS than people who switched to interferon beta-1a from placebo, according to new phase three results of the three-year REFLEXION clinical trial that will be presented as part of the Emerging Science ...

 Post subject: Splitting pain when injecting
PostPosted: Sun Apr 08, 2012 11:23 am 
Hi, I have looked in other threads but can't find a conclusive answer so please forgive a probably previously covered thread.

I have been using REBIF for a couple of months now and have started getting a splitting pain during the injection during the fluid going in.

Any ideas what it might be? Is it because I inject into muscle? (am quite skinny) Or is the depth too much (I haven't changed it - it's ...

PostPosted: Fri Mar 09, 2012 11:36 pm 
I am hoping someone here can help me with my concern. My mom 57 years old was on Avonex for the last 5 years and 5 weeks ago her Doctor changed her med to Rebif. After taking Rebif, she experienced some heavy Metrorrhagia side effect she went back to her doctor and couldn't figure out what might have caused this. It happens frequently now and it is really concerning me. Is this a normal Rebif ...
