Orencia Reviews
Working / Worked
Did it so I could work but did much better on Rituxan!!
Working / Worked
I took the Rituxin infusion for my RA but this medicine is the BOMB! I helps keep the inflamation down and i have more normal days. The only thing i don't like about it is the back pain. A side effect is chronic back pain, as if we need another source of pain, but it subsides. The positives outway the negatives.

Orencia vs. Humira
I've been on both but neither worked for me. I would chose the Humira over the Orencia. That's me. I've seen others with success on the Orencia. [More]
