Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to see if applying an anesthetic topical adhesive, Synera®, will reduce the injection pain. Relieving injection site pain may improve the tolerability of Multiple Sclerosis medications. Study Hypothesis: Pre-medication with Synera will have a significant effect on pain ratings as measured by the visual analog scale and Local injection site reaction scale.
