This med was just added to Enbrel in December for me. While I don't think what I had was an allergic reaction, I won't take it again because it caused my to have a horrible headache, elevated BP (I usually have low BP ), heart palpitations, no appetite with a bloated feeling, and constipation. I see the rheumy again tomorrow and I've decided I'm only going to do the Enbrel alone and when it gets bad I'll just take a short course of prednisone. There are other meds out there, I hope you find what works for you.
