Anybody Using A Generic Brand Of Copaxone?

A MyMSTeam Member asked a question 💭

I was on copaxone marketed by Teva. Now I'm on a generic brand that i dont know much about it. The company is Mylan Pharmaceuticals and its still glatiramer acetate 40 mg/ml. Any feed back from anyone?

Getting my first shipment of generic Copaxone on the 16th. Will let you know how it goes. I'm nervous because I've been on Copaxone for over 6 years. I don't like changes.

Hope all is going well for those of you who have switched to Mylan's glatiramer acetate :) My insurance wants me to go onto a generic, but I'm hoping to stay on Copaxone. Will see my neurologist next week to discuss! Out of the two generics - glatopa now Mylan's glatiramer acetate - the 2nd seems to me to be a better choice...so far! I'm interested to hear how it's working for those of you who have switched to it. Thanks and best wishes!

Didn't even know there was a generic for Copaxone. I've been on the C for a little over 3 months now specifically so that I can participate in a clinical trial through UC Irvine involving N-Acetyl Glucosamine. No complaints - the Copaxone is well tolerated.

My insurance company tried to switch me and it was a nightmare because they kept delaying my meds. Two weeks now!!!! My neuro said it is NOT the same and made the insurance give me Copaxone.
