Yes a New Drug after 16 years on Enbrel

Enbrel has had to be discontinued after two spells of Heart Failure which has fully reverted to good output since stopping the drug. Now to start Baricitnib 4mgs and hope this medication works as well as the Enbrel which had not stopped working in 16 years. I have read quite a few reviews but know like Enbrel it works for some and not others. So keeping my fingers crossed. Now have to wait 2 or 3 weeks to start.

Baricitinib has the benefit of being out of your system very quickly if it doesn't suit you. My OH likes it
