"After careful consideration of each of the treatments and time spent talking with my neurologist and others on the treatments, I chose COPAXONE®. My decision to start COPAXONE® was a simple one because it was proven effective and well tolerated."

Don’t get sidelined by side effects
Did you know that side effects are one of the main reasons people with multiple sclerosis stop taking their therapy?1,2 That’s why tolerability, or the way a multiple sclerosis therapy makes you feel, should always be a key consideration when deciding on a long-term treatment plan. If you’re someone with an active, on-the-go lifestyle, you’ll want to effectively manage your MS with the least possible disruption to your daily life.
COPAXONE® is well tolerated
COPAXONE® is the only injectable relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis therapy not associated with flu-like symptoms, increases in MS-related fatigue, and depression (when compared with placebo)—side effects that can interfere with your daily activities.3-6
Help with COPAXONE® injections
One common side effect with injectable therapies, including COPAXONE®, is an injection site reaction. This can take the form of swelling, pain, redness, itching, and lumps in the area where you’ve injected. As with any therapy, you’ll want to take steps that can help minimize these types of reactions. Learning good injection techniques, such as rotating your injection areas each day, can help reduce injection site reactions. You can also speak to an MS-certified nurse to set up in-home injection training, or for help managing injection site reactions by calling Shared Solutions® at 1-800-887-8100.
