ENBREL is indicated for reducing signs and symptoms, keeping joint damage from getting worse, and improving physical function in patients with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis. ENBREL can be taken with methotrexate or used alone.
ENBREL is indicated for chronic moderate to severe plaque psoriasis (PsO) in children 4 years and older and adults who may benefit from taking injections or pills (systemic therapy) or phototherapy (ultraviolet light).
ENBREL is indicated for reducing signs and symptoms, keeping joint damage from getting worse, and improving physical function in patients with psoriatic arthritis. ENBREL can be used with or without methotrexate.
ENBREL is indicated for reducing signs and symptoms in patients with active ankylosing spondylitis.
ENBREL is indicated for reducing signs and symptoms of moderately to severely active polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) in children ages 2 years and older.

Polyarticular JIA can’t be cured, but the symptoms can be managed. Your doctor may suggest that your child use nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)—like ibuprofen— to help ease swelling and relieve joint pain. Or they may prescribe steroids to help with pain and stiffness.
When those options do not provide enough symptom relief, rheumatologists can prescribe disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs). These medicines work on the immune system to help relieve joint pain.
Another option is biologics, which are made from living cells. In 1999, ENBREL became the first biologic medicine approved for moderate to severe polyarticular JIA. ENBREL blocks a signal from the immune system that causes inflammation and leads to joint pain. For many children with moderate to severe polyarticular JIA, biologics like ENBREL can help relieve joint pain, stiffness, and swelling.
Because ENBREL affects the immune system, it can make it harder to fight infections. Serious infections, like tuberculosis (TB) and infections caused by viruses, fungi, or bacteria, have happened in patients taking ENBREL. If your child starts to get an infection while taking ENBREL, tell the doctor right away. ENBREL can also raise other safety concerns. Lymphoma and other cancers have been reported in children and teenagers treated with ENBREL.
ENBREL is a medicine that affects your immune system. ENBREL can lower the ability of your immune system to fight infections. Serious infections have happened in patients taking ENBREL. These infections include tuberculosis (TB) and infections caused by viruses, fungi, or bacteria that have spread throughout the body. Some patients have died from these infections. Your healthcare provider should test you for TB before you take ENBREL and monitor you closely for TB before, during, and after ENBREL treatment, even if you have tested negative for TB.
There have been some cases of unusual cancers, some resulting in death, reported in children and teenage patients who started using tumor necrosis factor (TNF) blockers before 18 years of age. Also, for children, teenagers, and adults taking TNF blockers, including ENBREL, the chances of getting lymphoma or other cancers may increase. Patients with RA may be more likely to get lymphoma.
ENBREL can cause serious side effects including: New infections or worsening of infections you already have; hepatitis B can become active if you already have had it; nervous system problems, such as multiple sclerosis, seizures, or inflammation of the nerves of the eyes; blood problems (some fatal); new or worsening heart failure; new or worsening psoriasis; allergic reactions; autoimmune reactions, including a lupus-like syndrome and autoimmune hepatitis.
Common side effects include: Injection site reactions and upper respiratory infections (sinus infections).
In general, side effects in children were similar in frequency and type as those seen in adult patients. The types of infections reported were generally mild and similar to those usually seen in children.
These are not all the side effects with ENBREL. Tell your healthcare provider about any side effect that bothers you or does not go away.
If you have any questions about this information, be sure to discuss them with your healthcare provider. You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription drugs to the FDA. Visit www.fda.gov/medwatch, or call 1-800-FDA-1088.
