Hi all, just been approved funding for Benepali, just waiting for it to arrive to start, I know it’s different for everyone but any ideas of how long it takes to work ? I’ve been in agony since July last year I’m hoping this will help 🤔😢, living on MST co codamol and oramorph ☹️

Hi I was really lucky and started benepali last July and it started working within a couple of weeks, it was like nothing was wrong with me and it felt like a miracle. Good luck with starting your benepali. Julie

Hi summer fruits

I started Benepali in November but 25mg weekly due to a chest problem now I have been taking 50mg for a month and my DAS score has reduced. I'm hoping to stop methotrexate as I feel very unwell a day or 2 following injection.

I hope it works for you

I started feeling a difference the following day, slowly over a couple of weeks I found the pain and swelling going down and was able to make new movements without the pain. Hope its the same for you,

I’m still waiting for it to be delivered it can’t come quickly enough, if it gives me a bit of ease from pain I will be happy 😊
