I started 40mg does almost 3 wks ago...love it, except that had 1st post injection reaction tonite...the chance of it is less with 40mg tho, only like 2%...it was very scary and never want to do that again! I plan to continue 40mg, as long as doc agrees :)

I was on copoxone 40 3x a week same side effects as the 20 soo if copoxone 20 7xa week is working for you !! It will be in your favor !! i did the switch and I enjoyed it until my Nero suggested Rebif to switch

I'm starting it soon. My Dr said no side effects any different than lower dose. I'm not worried just excited for fewer shots!

Thank you both for the answers. I will be talking with my doctor about the 40 mg Copaxone after I go to the education seminar.

I was on copaxone 20 ml for 2 yrs and had to switch to rebif rebidose 44ml which is 3x a week. I wanted to go up to the copaxone 40 but it had not been aapproved at the time. Anyway a nurse frim Shared Solutions called me back in Jan to tell me it had been approved. According to her that since I had already been on it my body wouldn't have any
issues and that it works just like the 20. I do admit now that I am taking the injections 3x I love that a lot better! I am taking rebif rebidose though.good luck.
