Hello, my neurologist suggested putting me on Copaxone today.
I will call Shared Solutions tm but was just wondering if anyone could give me a ballpark pricing for this medication?
I haven't yet decided whether I'm gonna do this or not...
Thanks,
Nina

You need to also call Shared Solutions. They offer copay assistance. I pay $30 per month. Without that it's $30k per year. I've been on Copaxone for 3 years and it made my symptoms disappear. Be aware that when you start it, it will burn and you may itch and swell. Don't stop taking it because eventually, it will go away. It's my lifeline. I've had no new legions and no additional flare ups.

Wow, I'm surprised to hear this about $$. I'm on Rebif and my insurance covered it at $60/month, but MS Lifelines covered the copay so I don't have to pay anything. So very grateful!

If you call Copoxone and tell them you can't afford it and they have a program to get it free

I went through Shared Solituons and haven't paid a dime yet. Let them know you need assistance and they will help you!
