    Anybody know about Enbrel very good reviews. Enbrel is a biologic preparation rather than a chemical concept. GoodRx has it prices at $3,000 Wow

    Be wary of internet product reviews... rampant fraudulent reviews is common.

    Enbrel is used, not only for RA, but any auto immune disease. Has some very undesirable side effects, so I don't know where you heard good reviews. Enbrel decreases red blood cells disenabling the body to fight infections; this is not the kind of situation that anyone would want. It is only available by prescription and not sold in Canada thank god for that! Enbrel also encourages cancer cells in the liver.

    Is someone you know asking about this drug ?

    One has to wonder why pharmaceutical companies advertise drugs at all to the general public.
