Hi, I am 46 years old male and I am suffering from psoriasis for 5 years. My doctor prescribed me Enbrel two months ago and I had great expectations for this medication. Unfortunately nothing did happen and it didnt help me. I am very disappointed and I would like to hear some other people who use it for psoriasis.

Hi, I am also taking Embrel for the same reason like you do. I am using it for 4 months and I see improvement. In the beginning, for the first 30 days, I couldnt see some progress so I went to my doctor and complained about it. Doctor told me that Embrel is acting little slower and usually it takes about nine months to show real effects. It may be same problem with you.

Hi, I am 22 and was prescribed Enbrel after being diagnosed with severe psoriasis. I was on the Enbrel for about 3 months before improvement. I then had dark spots in the place of my plaque psoriasis. After taking the embrel religiously I am completely clear and have been for 2 years. I was able to wear a strapless gown at my February wedding in Vegas. We are very happy with my success from this medication. We are now thinking about having a baby so my next step with my medication is finding a doctor who will actually answer my questions on pregnancy and breastfeeding with the Enbrel. Any one?

I take enbrel for psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. It has cleared up my arthritis and all of my psoriasis except for 1 spot on my knee. I have been on it for almost a year. Anyone know why my knee won't clear up?
