Copaxone Daily
Day one hundred sixty-nine/365. You may hear people who have MS, or who live with them, refer to the A-B-C drugs.
My wife had been on Avonex, the "A drug," which involved a weekly injection deep into a muscle. Guessing that Avonex was lowering her white blood count, her neurologist switched her to the "C drug," Copaxone. That's a more shallow injection, done daily.
The notebook in the picture helps her to keep her shots organized. It includes a map of injection sites on her body; she needs to rotate them. Often, when a site is difficult for her to reach, or when she just doesn't have the gumption to give herself a shot, she'll ask me to handle the injection.
