For those investors who are new to Antares; it would be helpful if you would explain the difference between the Copaxone auto-injector being used now and the ones that Antares are developing for OTREXUP, etc. My sister has MS and tonight for the first time, I took a look at the injector that's she's using to administer the Copaxone. She said that she uses it once daily, but has to do so in various locations, as there's some slight pain involved. So far she's tried 7 different locations on her body, attempting to assess the area that will be the most tolerable for her. She admits that part of the "pain" is psychological, as it's a new experience for her.

At any rate, I've only seen photographs of the injectors that are going to be marketed by Antares. I'd like to know if they're going to have exclusive rights to use their injector for OTREXUP and other drugs. Also, what makes their injector any better than those from another company or the one that my sister is using? I can't remember the name of the one that she's using and don't know if there's just one company making the Copaxone injector for MS. Thanks very much for you help.
