Anti-TNF's....choice??????

topgirl

Hi Folks,

Had my assessment today and passed for an Anti TNF....

They have given me some leaflets so i can decide which one I want to try...

Enbrel
Humira
Cimzia

They all seem to do the same thing and have same side effects...
I have sero-negative RA...

Any opinions welcome....

They all have their pluses and minuses, utlimately only you can decide. What suits one won't suit another and you won't know which camp you are in until you give one a whirl. I think the way they present these options is less than helpful - surely a decision can only be based on experience of the meds and the leap into the anti TNF unknown is never easy. I wish you well and I hope the one you choose helps matters. DD

Well, I am on Cimzia and am getting a lot of infections. Apparently, it is the worst in that aspect. It has made me a lot more mobile though. I am probably going to be switched to another one soon.
