Just curious if there is anyone here that has tried Kineret. It is the

new Interleukin-1 biologic. I am sure many folks know about it

( http://www.kineretrx.com ), but I am wondering if anyone has had

positive or negative experiences.

I've been on Kineret since June, 2002. It has been very helpful and

I feel much better than I did before starting it. It takes about

2 - 3 weeks for your body to adjust to it.

Not crazy about doing daily injections, but I've gotten used to it.

Anyone else out there using Kineret?

Hi ..yes, I was on Kineret for about 4 months…..it did not work for me. I had huge itchy areas around the puncture sites. I really gave it a go, but it just was not the drug for me. I am now on Enbrel, and so far, that has worked wonders!!!!! sherri
