Patient adherence to and tolerability of self-administered interferon β-1a using an electronic autoinjection device: a multicentre open-label phase IV study

摘要

BackgroundAchieving good adherence to self-injected treatments for multiple sclerosis can be difficult. Injection devices may help to overcome some of the injection-related barriers to adherence that can be experienced by patients. We sought to assess short-term adherence to, and tolerability of, interferon (IFN) β-1a administered via electronic autoinjection device in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS).
