Let's do something about the high cost of drugs for MS. Urge Congress to support affordable MS therapies.

It's not news that multiple sclerosis drugs are expensive… really expensive. I live it.

It was 10 years ago this summer that I fell down some stairs one morning and, by the end of the day, learned that I was living with multiple sclerosis, a disease I share with more than 400,000 fellow Americans.

But did you know that Congress can help make the cost of specialty MS drugs more affordable? Some drug therapies can cost up to $30,000 each year. With your help, my goal is to send Congress more than 10,000 email messages by June 15 about high prescription drug costs.

Please take a minute to email your members of Congress. Urge them to ease the financial burden of expensive drugs on people living with MS and their families.

When I was diagnosed, my neurologist told me that new MS drugs and technologies were showing promise. But then I learned that the drugs would cost me more than $800 every month. So I postponed treatment as long as possible. When I couldn’t walk any more, I started on an MS therapy. But now this off-patent drug is more than $2,200 every month and not getting any more affordable… unless we convince Congress to do something.

Ask Congress to approve more affordable MS therapies. Simply click here to send your message today.
