Has anyone got experience of being on Adalimumab?

I might be going onto Adalimumab in the next couple of months. I have read a bit about it but would like to know how people who are on it feel and any side effects.

If you don't get many responses, maybe repost your question on autoimmune board, OP.

My DH is on this and says it's been wonderful.

I was offered this for Ankylosing Spondylitis but decided against it as I didn't want my immune system more compromised during the pandemic. I'd be interested to know how people get on too.

I've been on it for Crohn's. Worked an absolute treat to get me out of a flare up. The autoimmune board will get you more traffic, OP.

Thanks for the replies I will have a look on the autoimmune board.

I have been on it for psoriasis for 18 months. No side affects and it has cleared psoriasis by about 95%
Really easy to inject too. My only issue now is travelling with it

I have been on Adalimumab for 17 months. Yes it has definitely helped.

I may be coming off it, though; I don't know yet. My bloods are not indicative of my staying on it long-term. I might need to move over to another type of biologic.

I am waiting on another fuck-tonne of blood tests.

I've been on it for almost 2 years for Crohn's, it's been fantastic for me, has induced remission, and maintaining it so far. No serious side effects. Injections are a bit stingy and sometimes feel extra tired the day before. I feel loads better than before the Adalimumab. Total game changer
