Enbrel is a  medicine used to treat rhematoid arthritis. This medicine is a given through an injection It is not a big deal because the injector is like a pen  and you just click it like clicking a pen. The injector is already fille d with the medicine. I give myself shots in the stomach with the enbrel pen and it doesn't even hurt. Th eshots can also be given in the thigh or the back of th eupper arms, but I have found the stomach to be th eleast painful. TIP:  I let the medicine get to room temperature before I inject it and I think helps reduce the pain.

I could barely walk to my mailbox before I started using enbrel. My arthritis pain has been greatly reduced with enbrel and enbrel is NOT a pain medicine. It is a medicine that keeps your immune system from being so active and causing flare ups. My swelling went down right away. I noticed symptom reduction just a few days after I had the firest shot. I have been on enbrel for  a year and a half and I have had no adverse side effects. I would reccommend this medicine to anyone suffering from RA.
