"Humira was the second biologic that I tried, and it worked brilliantly. Leaps and bounds better than the Cosentyx I had started on originally. Then the switch came, and I am trying Amgevita. After 2 months, the joint pain started to return, albeit still less than taking no bios. But then skin psoriasis returned along with a massive outbreak of eczema. The soles of my feet and palms of my hands are a complete disaster. Walking hurts, I have to keep my hands covered in gloves because they are cracking and bleeding like my feet, and my body is now covered in small psoriasis patches! I have never had this much psoriasis or such a dramatic outbreak of eczema! I took myself off of Amgevita for 4 weeks, and the skin started to clear a little, but returned full force when I started taking it again. I need to try another biosimilar. Sure wish I could have my Humira back!"

"Complete wonder drug. Was taking 6 sulfasalazine alongside copious amounts of naproxen to be able to get out of bed and work (plumber). A week after I took Amjevita, I was walking as if I were on naproxen and decided to stop taking the other tablets. I’m yet to catch up with my specialist, but from using a walking stick to get to the toilet, now on the verge of jogging and walking 10 miles with the dog... game changer."

"I was on Humira for a 12-month period and recently started using Amjevita. I have taken 8 vials so far. However, I noticed increased joint pain and some psoriasis conditions on my legs and head. Although, my C-reactive protein level is still under control. Another major issue is the SureClick Amjevita pen mechanism. Sometimes it works properly, sometimes not. However, I have become very reluctant to use Amjevita due to the pain it gives when injecting. With Humira, I enjoyed using the pen. Wish I could go back to Humira."
