Can u get enbrel without going to a dermatalogist?

Enbrel is used for several different conditions, but you would not necessarily go to a dermatologist, you would go to a rheumatologist. Enbrel is a TNF blocker (Tumor Necrosis Factor) that suppresses your immune system so that you can function comfortably if you have an autoimmune disease, such as rheumatoid arthritis, or ankylosing spondylitis. By your question about the dermatologist, I’m guessing that either you or the person you are writing about may be suffering from a disease called Plaque Psoriasis, or even Psoriatic Arthritis, both of which leave scaly lesions on the skin. All of these conditions are treated by a Rheumatologist, which can be suggested by your insurance company, or a general practitioner. If your insurance company doesn’t cover the cost of Enbrel, Humira is a sister medicine that works equally well, yet can cost next to nothing through a program set up through the prescriber, Abbott laboratories. I hope I have helped.
