User Reviews for Enbrel

My 6 year old has been on Enbrel for about 3 months for JRA and Uveitis. I would give this medicine a 10 if it was working on her eyes as well as it is on her joints. Little to no swelling in affected joints but she is still having flares in her eyes. No side effects so far and she actually looks forward to the injection because it makes her feel better.

My 8 yr old has been on Enbrel for 1.5 years. She went from barely able to walk or get up in the morning to running and tackling her brother. She still has flares, she still has bad days. But thanks to Enbrel she's learning how to be a kid... something she didn't know before starting it.

I have had Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis since 5th grade and until now (my sophomore year of college) I have had to use pills to keep it under control. I will admit that I was very adverse to the idea of a self injecting medication, in fact, my doctor has been trying to convince me to use them for years and I have always refused. Finally my doctor said that he thought it was the only good option left. I couldn't be happier. The injections are only once a week and they are virtually PAINLESS. It sounds crazy but it's true. The other amazing thing is that the morning after I had used the first injection, I was PAIN FREE. It worked that fast. If you're thinking about Enbrel you should really give it a try... you won't be disappointed.

I'm a 15 year old female, and I have been using the Enbrel Sureclick Autoinjectors for about 12 weeks now for Juvenile Spondylo Arthritis in my left hip. It is a miracle! Before I started using this, I could barely walk and after the first 2 weeks of these injections, I was going to concerts, running track, and walking with no limp at all, whereas before, none of those were even possible for me. While the medicine works very well, I've noticed that my injection sight gets red, itchy, and swollen, and you can actually see where the injection fluid went in because there are multiple trails of bumps branching out from the injection sight. It's quite odd. Other than the redness and itching, this product is wonderful.
