I was on Enbrel for a year and a half along with Otrexup. All of a sudden the Enbrel stopped working and the Otrexup was caisson a dry cough so my doctor switched me to Orencia. I have been on prednisone for six weeks now and hope the Orencia kicks in soon! Flare up is pretty bad even with prednisone. I take Tylenol arthritis too and that seems to help. Prayers too🙏

Hi there, I am on Oriencia, I started it mid December and it still has not kicked in. I have been told it can take up to six months wo work, I am keeping my fingers crossed (not actually) and for now I aam taking prednesone as well.

I mdon't know about orencia injections, but I got steroids, I think, from the ra hand specialist.

I chose the injectable clickject it seems easier. I never heard if injecting in the thumb??
