| 4 | rheumatoid arthritis | No side effects | Only problem I've had with it is that it tends to wear off. A dosage of once every three weeks would be ideal. It's helped me a lot!!! I was scared to try it but found it to work well and to have no side effects- have only had a cold or two in a year. Don't hesitate to try it. | F | 58 | 1 years 50 mg 1X M | 2/28/2013 | 4 | Rheumatoid Arthritis | none | This is my 3rd biological DMARD I've tried and it's worked great for me. I had bad injection site reactions to Enbrel and Humira, so I was pretty excited that this one was a keeper. It has also worked to keep my RA at bay as well. | F | 30 | 8 months 1 inject. 1X M | 4/25/2011 | 3 | Psoriasis arthritis | Headache, flu symptoms, itching, nausea, shortness of breath, depressed, stomach pain, inflammation. | Not the best medicine for my arthritis, but helps a little on the swollen joints, and the pain. does not help the psoriasis on the skin. | M | 36 | 6 months 50 mg 1X M | 1/9/2011 | 3 | Lupus | Couldn't even feel the injection. Couldn't really tell if the medication helped either because I've been on steriods nearly the whole year. I do still have flares but they seem a lot more manageable. | F | 35 | 1 years prefilled 1X D | 1/1/2011 | 2 | RA | the usual | I have found a natural cure in honey and vinegar plus some vitamins; all drugs are poisonous.. | M | 55 | 30 days 1X W | 12/6/2010 | 5 | RA | No reaction at site of injection. Nausea in the morning day after injection | It works. All pain in my joints is gone! After only 2 injections! More energy, can start living again. | F | 47 | 2 months 50 1X M | 6/18/2010 | 5 | rheumatoid arthritis | bruise where it was injected. Pretty irritating headache the day of injection. | After a few days my swelling dropped dramatically. i can move around now and have been hitting up the gym again, I feel great! | M | 29 | 2 weeks | 8/13/2009 | 2 | rheumatoid arthritis | I just administered my 2nd injection. This is a once a month TNF drug. Definitely pain at injection site but only for a couple of minutes. I use the prefilled syringes once monthly. Have not noticed any other side effects however I have not noticed any improvement either. As a matter of fact my hands are actually getting worse. I am not currently on Methatrexate. I go back to rheumy on Mon. July 13 so we shall see what she says. I know they say sometimes it takes a month or 2 to start to see any benefit so... hopefully next month I will be able to increase my rating on this drug. | F | 46 | 2 months | 7/11/2009 |
