EMD Serono of Canada is marketing Rebif MS treatment in a disposable self injecting package that makes this procedure a lot more comfortable and convenient for the more than 350,000 sufferers of this debilitating and painful progressive disease.  It is called the Rebiject II (good marketing name) and is extremely easy to use in your own home, or even while you are out for the evening.  Rebif Multiple Sclerosis injections are given from this one piece device that has a needle depth adjuster to let you know just how far the needle will penetrate beneath the skin.  This is important to those that may not have much body fat.  It loads with the drug in one easy step so that you don’t have to take the plunger off the needle for each Rebif MS injection.  There is a visual signal to let you know your injection is complete and successful, and the rubber grip fits neatly in your hand.

Rebif Multiple Sclerosis intravenous use is one of the leading injectables in the U.S. and it works on three of the most important disease activities.  It slows the progression of the MS.  It reduces the frequency of relapse, and maybe most importantly, Rebif MS treatment reduces the area of brain lesions visible on MRI’s.

 

Approved for the relapsing types of MS only

 

After more than 16 years of patient and trial experience, Rebif Multiple Sclerosis injections are known to decrease the relapse frequency in the RRMS forms of MS, but it is not approved for treating the chronic progressive form of MS.  And if the auto-injector isn’t enough to make you consider Rebif for your treatment, the fact that it will store for up to 30 days at room temperature may help convince you.  And when you start your Rebif MS treatment, you might find the Rebif MS Lifelines comforting.  It is a free educational support network for MS patients and their families that allow you to talk to a live support representative anytime, 24 hours a day.

You can find out about the Rebif MS lifelines by going to mslifelines.com.  MS lifelines is an educational support group designed both for MS patients and the families and caretakers of MS patients.  It is sponsored by EMD Serono and Pfizer, both drug manufacturers of Rebif MS treatment drugs.  They offer local programs within communities for personal contact and also sponsor live events and seminars.  The seminars are given by health care professionals and MS LifeLine Ambassadors.  The web page gives schedules and dates for these local events.
