What has been your experience with biological modifiers (remicade, enbrel, humira) for Rheumatoid Arthritis?Posted by: Alan in rheumatoid arthritis treatment, tags: Arthritis, Been, biological, Enbrel, Experience, Humira, modifiers, Remicade, RheumatoidI have been taking MTX for about 1 year and started Remicade about 4 months ago (I have received 5 infusions so far). For the first couple months the Remicade seemed to work amazingly but for the last 2 months or so I continue to have pain and stiffness before, right through and after my treatments. I mentioned this to my rheumatologist and he increased my dose with no real difference ( I will of course mention this at our next check up). My question is has anyone else had experience with Remicade’s effectiveness wearing off? Also does anyone have experience with other TNF Inhibitors such as Humira and Enbrel? Anyone switched meds and found that one worked better than another for them? If one Biological Modifier doesn’t work does that mean that they all wont work for me? Thanks!

My husband has just been diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis. Are there any alternative meds that may help?Posted by: Alan in rheumatoid arthritis treatment, tags: Alternative, Arthritis, Been, Diagnosed, Help, husband, Just, meds, Rheumatoid, ThereHe is 46 and it came on suddenly. He really suffers with it. The doc put him on Enbrol?? It’s a weekly injection. We are waiting for it to be shipped to us so he can begin. I can’t help but wonder if there are other options? There is another med he can’t take because he has FLD.Anyone have alternative remedies that may help?
