ENBREL 50MG INJECTION

ENBREL 50MG INJECTION may be prescribed to treat the following inflammatory and autoimmune conditions:

• Rheumatoid arthritis: ENBREL 50MG INJECTION helps reduce joint pain, swelling, and stiffness in moderate to severe cases, protecting joints from long-term damage.
• Plaque psoriasis: It calms down the overproduction of skin cells, significantly reducing red, itchy, and scaly patches.
• Psoriatic arthritis: It eases joint swelling and pain while simultaneously improving psoriasis-related skin symptoms.
• Ankylosing spondylitis: It relieves stiffness and back pain caused by chronic inflammation in the spine and pelvis.
• Polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis: It manages joint swelling, pain, and stiffness in children and teenagers with inflammatory arthritis.
   

ENBREL 50MG INJECTION is a biologic medicine used to treat certain inflammatory and autoimmune conditions, including rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and plaque psoriasis. It works by blocking tumour necrosis factor (TNF), a protein that plays a key role in inflammation.

• Reduces Joint Inflammation: Helps decrease pain, swelling, and stiffness in inflammatory joint conditions, making everyday movement more comfortable.
• Improves Physical Function: By controlling inflammation, it may improve mobility and make activities such as walking, climbing stairs, or using the hands easier.
• Helps Control Psoriasis: Reduces the severity of red, scaly, and itchy plaques in people with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis.
• Slows Joint Damage: In conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis, controlling inflammation may help slow the progression of structural joint damage.
• Supports Long-Term Disease Control: Regular treatment can reduce disease activity and help improve overall quality of life in people with chronic inflammatory conditions.
   

• Follow your doctor’s instructions on the dosage and timing of this medication to ensure safe and effective use.
• ENBREL 50MG INJECTION will be administered by the doctor or healthcare professional.
• Do not self-administer.

• Eat an anti-inflammatory diet: Focus on whole foods rich in antioxidants, such as leafy greens, berries, walnuts, and fatty fish, which can help support overall joint and skin health.
• Protect your joints: Engage in low-impact exercises like swimming, cycling, or yoga to maintain flexibility and strength without overloading your joints.
• Practice strict hygiene: Wash your hands frequently and avoid close contact with individuals who have active infections, as ENBREL 50MG INJECTION can temporarily lower your body's defences.
• Manage your weight: Maintaining a healthy weight reduces mechanical stress on weight-bearing joints like the knees and hips, which helps ease pain.
• Avoid raw foods: Steer clear of raw meats, runny eggs, and unpasteurised dairy products to minimise the risk of foodborne infections while your immune system is slightly suppressed.
   

• Check the liquid first: Inspect the solution inside the syringe or pen before injecting; it should be clear and colourless to pale yellow. Do not use it if it is cloudy, discoloured, or contains floating particles.
• Do not shake: Shaking the syringe or pen can damage the delicate proteins in the medication, making it less effective.
• Rotate your sites: Consistently changing your injection spot helps prevent the buildup of hard or fatty lumps under the skin.
• Get screened first: Ensure your doctor tests you for tuberculosis (TB) and hepatitis B before starting treatment, as ENBREL 50MG INJECTION can reactivate dormant infections.
• Avoid live vaccines: Do not receive live vaccines (such as the nasal spray flu vaccine) while using this medicine, as they could cause a serious infection.
