I used embrel for six months with no improvement. After a few of taking simponi along with methotrexate I have had great improvement. Its like a wonder drug for me.

Hi I've just had my first injection today have tried Embrel for about 8 months to no avail, I have Rheumatoid Arthritis. After the Embrel I was then put on Humira and had sever reactions to this injection. Now trialling this Anti-TNF. praying that it works and I don't have any sever reactions as with Humira . It's my 4th biological medication now, 1st one Actemera was successful but was taken off due to some side effects. It's a really new drug hear in Australia with very strict guidelines on critera of those whom are given authority to take it.

Sometimes, it isn't a case of one drug being better than another, but rather a matter of which one works better for you, like Sussan experienced.

Simponi and Enbrel are both used to treat the same types of conditions, and the FDA lists their various side effects as possibly including nausea, itching, administration site redness, dizziness, and headache.

Which one has your doctor suggested you should try?
