Enbrel and Susceptability to Flat Warts | Arthritis Information

Share
 

I've been on Enbrel for most of the last seven years.  The last year I started developing flat warts on my lower legs.  The dermatologist has tried three types of treatments and we may have found something that is finally working.  The doctor says they are hard to treat due to my taking an immunosuppresent drug.  Has anyone out there experienced this, and if so how did you get rid of them?  Thanks!    Warts are a type of skin infection so it would make sense they are hard to treat when you are on immunosupressants.  We are more vulnerable to infections because of the meds we take.  And it is harder to fight them off too.  I know that when I have a sinus infection or anything like that, my course of antibiotics is longer than normal. 

Can't help you with what gets rid of the flat warts tho.  Sorry about that.  What did your doc prescribe?  Maybe there is a natural supplement out there to help prevent them?
