Metz IM, Patten B, Archibald CJ et al.,The effect of immunomodulatory treatment on multiple sclerossi fatigue. JNNP 20 04; 75: 1045-7.
In Calgary 218 MS clinic studied patients with initially comparable levels of fatigue who were treated with glatiramer (copaxone) v. interferons using fatigue impact scale. 2x as many started on copaxone and 2x as many reported greater reductions in fatigue. This was true for all MS patients and RRMS patients. The difference affected total FIS, the physical and cognitive subscale but not the social subscale. The authors used one SD as the cutoff.
