Guest guest Posted October 8, 2010 Report Share Posted October 8, 2010 I have been on 50 mg of Enbrel twice weekly for several years now, along with Arava. I use the pre-filled syringes as I don't like the pen. My liver functions have been normal, no adverse reactions and P and PA are in check. I can't ask for a better combination. My system did not tolerate the methotrexate. Hope all goes well for you. It has been a God send for me. Best of luck. Have a good one, Terri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 8, 2010 Report Share Posted October 8, 2010 I am on the twice weekly 25 mg. It has been a god sent for me. I am lucky that my right hand has not been affected by my arthritis so I have not had any problems with injections. I would talk with your rheumy to find out what type is best for you. I wish you the best. RitaColorado Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 Hi Max, I, too, choose to use the pre-filled syringes as the needles appear to be much sharper than the ones that are in the pens - which results in a much more comfortable shot for me. I cannot say enough about how much enbrel has helped me. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 10, 2010 Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 I'm on the 50mg once a week, it works good for PA but not for P at all. And I dont self inject for the same reason you mentioned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
