From my quick scan of the internet it appears that Copanex is another name for Copaxone, perhaps in Italian. "Copanex" is used too often for it to be a misspelling.

Copaxone is a DMD ... Is that the name you mean?
DMD - disease modifying drug
It is a daily injection with lower side effects than the other injectables available.

I do not know of other names it may have

Others will chime in with better info too I am sure. I never took Copaxone myself.
