Use of GA depot for progressive MS given US patent
« on: June 23, 2022, 09:11:19 pm »

The injection, given every 4 weeks, is intramuscular. The main justification for bringing this new type of glatiramer acetate onto the market seems to be that it would be more convenient for people, and so patient compliance would be improved.
