Hi,
I tried the sureclick for Enbrel and it's ok, but I decided to go back to using just a syringe. My pros for the sureclick were that it doesn't bruise as much as using a syringe and the needle goes into my skin a little easier. The cons for me are that I can't always get it to click easily (I have to reposition and retry a couple times if it's not really pressed to the skin) and I don't like not seeing the needle go in. Also, I worried about the extra plastic since it can't be recycled.
I'm sure your doctor can write the prescription so you can try it for a month or two and if you don't like it, can switch back to syringes.
I hope this is helpful,
Christine
