: :I also am interested in Enbrel and if there are any others who are using it. Especially in the cases of JRA> I have a 15yr old daughter who has not responded to anything. Not NSAIDS, not Methyltrexate, not steroid injections. Enbrel is the next step. I'm concerned that there is no long-term research data available. Thanks.
: : I have just started Enbrel injections. Any feedback from current users would be appreciated.
I'm sorry, I can't give you any help on Enbrel for JRA. I am just over 50. Although I'm concerned about the absence of testing, I'm over the hill anyway so I'm going to give it a try. I'm in my fouth week of injections now...no wonder drug so far. I'm having some skin rash bu that is the only symptom.
Good luck. CB
