Are There Any Harmful Interactions With Enbrel And Nexplanon?

I have been on nexplanon the birth control implant for almost a year now. I stopped getting my period three months into having it. Recently I have started taking enbrel for ankylosing spondilitis and have noticed symptoms of breast tenderness, spotting, mood swings, and i have gained 20 lbs. Do these two act against each other or are all the symptoms coming from enbrel??

Hello,

It is absolutely fine to use Nexplanon while on Enbrel. The side effects you are experiencing could be from both of the medications.
