Avonex, Bipolar disorder, and the suicide connection
I had been doing some research on Bipolar disorder and MS. It seems to
be common among those with MS to have both. Studys show that usually
those that have both diseases, usually the Bipolar preceeds the ms
diagnosis. With that being said, I can attest to the studies concerning
these disorders and those who are taking Avonex. Avonex is a
prescription drug to treat ms and is done by injection. A heed of
warning on this however. If you are suffering with Bipolar disorder I
would think twice of taking Avonex. A rare but definate side affect of
Avonex is suicide. I found this out after taking it for a month. Not
only did the flu like symptoms come but so did severe depression,
followed by the feeling of wanting to die. My neuro got me off of it
needless to say. So I would suggest doing your own research if you do
indeed have Bipolar disorder, and are considering Avonex.
