Rebif Reviews

Show: for
Occasional fever, and injection site bruises.
Working / Worked
Really great so far. I started treatment immediatly after dx. Just had 6 month MRI, most of the old lesions are healed, some new ones, but really small, 2-3 mm, overall, symptoms aren't too bad. I'm lucky, almost no side effects even in the beginning. I do get some post injection site redness, but it goes away after a couple of days.
I used it for six months and then to copaxones
