If you take Copaxone or Betaseron, DON'T use your alcohol swabs

[ActiveMSers]

This just came in and I imagine it affects many of us. The alcohol prep pads made by Triad that are shipped with the drugs may be contaminated and have been recalled. Do NOT use the pads.

Still take your Copaxone or Betaseron, but either use your own pads that you purchase separately or sterilize your injection site with alcohol and cotton balls. Read more here:

Thank you - first I heard of it...

I take Copaxone but had not heard of this recall. I also had CVS pads (CVS and 7 other distributors were on the list for Triad). Thank you again! Sue
