Yes, and I tried Enbrel for my psoriatic arthritis, but it wasn’t effective (not sure whether it was working for AED.) We then switched me to Humira. And I’m not quite sure either of those are biologics. I get confused about that in the conversation with the rheumatologist. She talks about biologics - risks/benefits, and talks about a bunch of meds including Enbrel, Humira, Taltz, methotrexate, prednisone, etc. - and I know some of those AREN’T biologics, so I don’t know. I know metho. and prednisone aren’t.
