- Aside from injection frequency, what are the major differences between therapies?
- Will these therapies continue to be effective after a couple of years?
- Have these therapies been studied for long-term safety?
- Does this therapy require additional tests to monitor my blood, liver or other functions of my body?
- What symptoms or side effects might I experience with these therapies?
- Will I experience muscle pains and flu-like symptoms because of therapy?
- How easily will the injection schedule fit into my daily routine?
- What do I need to prepare before I can self-inject?
- Is there a device to help me self-inject into difficult-to-reach places?
- Is there a patient support program that will provide me with personal service in helping to manage my MS?
- What is the cost of each of the therapies?
