    New Needles?

    Are there new needles coming with the Avonex pre-filled syringes? I've been self-injecting Avonex since September 1997. I've been self-injecting with the pre-filled syringes since Biogen made the switch from the powdered form in 2003.

    Lately, I've noticed that it's become a bit more awkward self-injecting (heck I've almost become a pro at it!). I suspect a change in the needle.

    Has anyone else noticed a difference?

    No, not to me its not. Currently on the powder form and been on Avonex (powder or briefly pre-filled) since June 1996. To me its the same old big needle, and I am a pro at it!

    For me Interferon therapy is essential in slowing MS down.
    Will continue with the weekly injections and take my disease one day at a time...

      On prefilled but I use 25 gauge 1" needles which are infinitely more comfortable than the ones that come in the prefilled package. Both are wrapped the same. What are you thinking is different?
