Rebif or Copaxone?

After watching videos, reading books and websites, I'm still having a difficult time deciding which treatment to follow. It would be great to hear from someone who has tried both Rebif and Copaxone and can compare the two in terms of side effects (I know everyone is different) and effectiveness.

New MS Drug Ampyra

Vicki, it has been a while since I talked here.  Don't know why I stopped.   I have tried both Rebif and Copaxone for my PPMS, each for about two years.  As you probably know, they are not supposed to cure MS, but rather slow the progression.  It is therefore hard to know whether they are working.  How do you judge how... Read moreChevron
