Guest guest Posted August 3, 2002 Report Share Posted August 3, 2002 Is there anyone on this site using Kineret? I have heard alot about Remicade working but haven't heard much about Kineret. I have tried both and neither worked for me. I had no problem with Remicade but didn't care much for the Kineret injections. Just curious. in WA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 3, 2002 Report Share Posted August 3, 2002 ; I find that interesting also...I am WAITING and WAITING on Enbrel and my rheumy said OK Remicade but there is an insurance problem with it for me...I then said what about Kirinet and he got a funny look on his face and then said there has been no trials with Kirinet in scleroderma so I really dont want to go there...I have noticed it doesnt seem to be the drug of choice......I also wondered what the problem seems to be with it...Kathi in OK --- grannyfellx6 <grannyfellx6@...> wrote: > Is there anyone on this site using Kineret?

Guest guest Posted August 9, 2002 Report Share Posted August 9, 2002 Hi I used Kineret for a short time. Unfortunately I developed an allergic reaction and had to d/c the med. Sorry I can't help more. Stacey in PA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did tell them that I was not taking it anymore but still received a radio, so I think your ok. I did take the shots for 2 months and did me no good at all. Thanks for the answer. Sorry it took so long but I got to watch 3 of my grandchildren last week while their parents were gone, they don't have the internet. I had such a good time and cried as I left I really miss the little sweeties. in WA ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 Hi Sue I'm A+ and I've found the liquid (mixing from the Revia (generic) pill) seems to be better for me. I was on the compounded capsules for 15 months. I remember though when I used to take Tylenol or aspirin, I had to take 3 rather than 2 in order for them to be effective. I had a hair mineral analysis done about 8 months ago though and the doctor said I had good absorption of minerals (calcium, magnesium etc.) Arlene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
