I guess some people take Cosentex via infusion??? I give myself injections. So far it’s good. I had to wait for it to reach proper levels in my system. (About 3 months)-

If your doctor tries this for you, you'll have to take folic acid and methotrexate(a chemo drug).it's part of the therapy. Makes you sleepy after the infusion

Hello Kelvin2, I am not sure. I know that when my doctor did a blood test to see how I was responding to the Enbrel I had less than a 5% chance for it to work. This test also knocked out 5 other medications that I would not respond to. I know my rheumatologist does infusions in her office. Hopefully the Cosentyx will give me some relief. If not I will definitely ask about renflixis. Thanks for responding no one else has.
