I don't take enbrel but I do take Nytol and yes I do find it helps. I've tried other over the counter rescue remedy type sleeping stuff and Nytol is the one that works for me if I'm having trouble sleeping.

As I said I don't take enbrel but I do take mtx and I'm about to start cimzia. It's cheapest to buy tesco or sainsburys own brand of Nytol and I always take the minimum dose when I need to take it.

As they say, always best to check with the pharmacist/gp etc before taking any over counter stuff with your meds though. I was told by mine it was ok with mtx. It is so rubbish not sleeping so I hope you get it sorted and good luck

I have taken methotrexate for about 10 years and enbrel for the past 18months; recently I've had more trouble than usual sleeping. I have never needed a lot of sleep not going to bed until 1am so hadn't made the connection with the drugs before. I now find myself getting up 4 or 5am and drinking hot chocolate and then going back to bed for a couple of hours sleep. I 'll give nytol a try and will follow your post with interest for other idea's.
