Stuart SchlossmanAlternative therapies and devices for Multiple Sclerosis (MS), MS Drug Therapies


Now there’s a one-click way to take once-a-week AVONEX. AVONEX PEN is a single-use prefilled autoinjector that uses a covered needle that’s half the length of the standard needle for AVONEX Prefilled Syringe. There’s never been an easier way to get the benefits of AVONEX.
In a study of people already taking AVONEX, 9 out of 10 preferred AVONEX PEN over the prefilled syringe.b,c The top reasons chosen were:
  • Easier to use
  • Reduced pain
  • Reduced anxiety
In the study, 89% of people correctly followed the instructions for using AVONEX PEN. In fact, there were no device failures, and 99% of people got their full dose of AVONEX.
It’s also reassuring to know that, in this study, people felt significantly less injection pain after they switched from prefilled syringe to AVONEX PEN.d People in the study also experienced reduced injection anxietye and felt more confident self-injectingf with AVONEX PEN than with the Prefilled Syringe.
