Humira (adalimumab) "Not the best experience. After a few months of using Humira, I had to have my knee drained 3 times typically after an injection. My psoriasis moved under my nails, for the first time in 30 years. My body is covered in cysts on my back and on the side of my arms. None is noticeable just to the touch. I wouldn't take it again even if I was paid."

Humira (adalimumab) "Before starting Humira, my Dr asked if I had any nerve issues and I explained lesions had been found on my brain in 2015 that they suspect may be MS, but I hadn't done confirmation MRI to confirm the diagnosis. He put me on it anyways and I trusted him. My psoriasis went away and I was happy until about a year into taking it when I started having serious cognitive issues, balance issues that cause nausea and weight loss,etc. I've been going thru testing for 6 months now, and more and more the neurologist and other specialists I'm now having to see regularly suspect the Humira is what caused the new lesions on my brain that are causing ALL of my neurological issues! I've had to leave my job because I was unable to work, my family has suffered, and while it was nice to have the psoriasis gone, it wasn't worth this."

Humira (adalimumab) "59 never had psoriasis or family history. Got small rash and then a flare up on lower back. Never on knees or elbows, no joint pain. Maybe the propranolol caused it. I was taking too much (anxiety) and it triggers immune response. In 5 minutes of only a visual exam derm said the p word, psoriasis. No way. Nonetheless, I was like, ok, give me a topical and I'll be on my way. He for some strange reason left the room and returned by saying " I treat from inside " Next, you got it, HUMIRA!!. I was naive and uneducated on biologics. I took it 12 months. I was without the few rashes week 10, but it probably would have left on its own. I continued taking H for a year and everything was ok. Fact, 0 side effects. I think the Dermatologist checked my insurance when he left room. Month 14 I got urinary tract infection and that was it. Never had UTI in my life. It is a common side effect I found out later. It took me a month to get rid of...So I had to stop abruptly. I never got H again"

Humira (adalimumab) "I have been diagnosed with severe psoriasis since January 2020. My dermatologist tried topicals first and did blood work & everything worked well. It started as a small patch on my scalp. It then progressed to all over my scalp to my face, ears, back, chest, stomach, legs & groin. It was at this time my doctor prescribed me Humira starting January 2021. After 3 months I am completely clear. I can go out in public and people not be afraid I have COVID. I am back to my normal beautiful skin. I have had no side effects & it only cost me 5 dollars a month! Humira has worked wonders. Plus all my lab work is coming back normal. I got my life back. :)"

Humira (adalimumab) "I was diagnosed about 2 months ago with plaque psoriasis and this condition really had me feeling depressed at first. My doctor referred me to a dermatologist, I began phototherapy the end of October and I started the Humira injections last week. Today I notice my skin clearing and I wasn't having a lot of pain so today I'm much happier with Humira"

Humira (adalimumab) "I tried Humira and I only had psoriasis on my feet and hands, now I'm covered with psoriasis from head to toe after my third dose. I feel terrible and have quit going to the gym because I'm so embarrassed by the way my skin looks. I wish I never took any of the shots. Ozempic made me have dry heaves and now my doctor wants me to try Skyrizi. I wish I never took anything and just did the tanning booth for my feet and hands. I have it now everywhere."

Humira (adalimumab) "Very painful to inject. Doesn’t seem too effective. Many times the medication just spills out instead of injecting. Poor overall."
