The Multiple Sclerosis Resource page is a collaborative project of NeedyMeds and the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. It is intended to provide information on multiple sclerosis and to streamline and simplify the way those with MS may find assistance paying for their medications.
MS is a chronic, often disabling disease that attacks the central nervous system. The progress, severity, and specific symptoms of MS are unpredictable and vary from one person to another. Today, new treatments and advances in research are giving new hope to the approximately 400,000 people living with MS in the United States. |
Patient Assistance Programs (PAPs) are programs offered by pharmaceutical companies to help those most in need gain access to their medications at no or low cost. Each program has varying financial and insurance guidelines - when in doubt, call the program. To find the specific PAP information for a specific drug click on the list below. You will then be taken to a listing of all the programs available for that medication.
The National Multiple Sclerosis Society and NeedyMeds neither promote nor endorse the therapies listed below nor the supporters of this page. This page is for educational purposes only. |
