Enbrel

A MyPsoriasisTeam Member asked a question 💭
Buchanan, MI

I have been on Enbrel for about 3 weeks. I inject 2x a week, monday and Thursday. During my last week I noticed injection site reaction. I did read that this is one of the most common side effects. Does anybody else have this issue? Is it okay to continue my injections even though I'm getting a big red spot?

Any reaction would be your body saying stop. You wouldn't let a wasp sting you repeatedly when the area reacts to the poison.

my husband has to use injections for rheumatoid arthritis and the doctors advise injecting in a different leg each week, not the same one all the time
