"Was on REMICADE everything was great and I was back to feeling normal and in remission for long time. My insurance company did a mandatory med change so they could save a little bit of money. Now I'm in major pain again ,going threw flare up and near having to go to ER to get help. One dose of infletra was all it took to mess me up again. My insurance wont even let me back on REMICADE. I truly hope no one else has to be forced on infletra"

"I swear they created this drug just to get rid the sick people. It isn't working and the only answer the doctor gives me is 'it should be.' I have wounds on my body that won't heal. I swear this drug is bad for me. I am constantly sick. Because I have ulcerative colitis any symptom I have is just related to that according to doctors. I will likely die from this drug. I just feel it. How is a drug with so many side effects even approved? We will just shut your immune system down, even though you will likely die from something this medication caused way faster than your health issue would have. But hey, we made a lot of money. Hope you enjoyed you experience on Earth."

"Treating ulcerative colitis. Entyvio worked 3 1/2 years - stopped working. Switched to Stelara - barely worked for 6 months. Switched to Inflectra 8 months ago - working great so far. Prednisone always clears up flare-ups - but at 10 cents a pill these infusion drug companies hate it & put out studies about the evils of steroids."

"I have been getting infusion and it hasn't helped at all. It just gives a lot of headaches and I have zero percent energy ever."

"Insurance company switched me off my Remicaid to the cheaper drug, Inflectra causing severe flare. Headaches, nausea, diarrhea, and vomiting. No energy during the day, I have to take several naps just to get through the day. I had just gotten used to being and feeling better after fighting with my colitis. The Remiciad put me into remission and now I'm sick again because of Inflectra."
