Fasting The Day Before Enbrel

Has anyone tried fasting on the day before taking Enbrel? I heard it works for Methotrexate but I was wondering if it worked to lessen the nausea after injecting Enbrel?

Hello Mary,

I've looked all over but I can't seem to find anywhere that supports this idea, not even from forums dedicated to discussing Enbrel. I was able to find a forum on the "livingwithpsoriaticarthritis" organization website that discusses the matter of nausea but most users state that this only happens for the first few shots and subsides within a few hours.

In regards to your specific question of fasting before the injection I would advise you discuss this matter with your doctor first to ensure that it is safe and will have no negative effects on you. If your doctor gives you the go ahead I suppose you could give it a go and report back. It would be certainly worth entertaining the idea, especially if this worked for you with Methotrexate.

If your doctor gives you the green light and you try it, please let me know how it works so I can reference this later in the event that another user has this question.

Have a wonderful day.
