Guest guest Posted December 21, 2004 Report Share Posted December 21, 2004 , I just saw my rheumatologist Friday and he gave me a new Rx for the 50mg Enbrel. I thought 1 shot would be better than 2 and was excited about it. Is it that much worse? Yike! Jill > > Enbrel has agreed to replace my 50 mg injections (the ouch ones!) > with the 25 mg injections.

Guest guest Posted December 23, 2004 Report Share Posted December 23, 2004 Yes, Jill. I really thought it was horrible and called my doctor and told him. He told me that he has received many complaints about the new 50 mg injections and he no longer prescribes them to his patients unless that understand the stinging and burning that goes along with it. I don't mind 2 virtually painless injections. Way better than 1 painful one, IMO!
