Humira is the best thing that ever happened to my RA. When I first got diagnosed two years ago, I could barely walk and was in debilitating, constant pain. I was 33 and felt like this disease was stealing my life. Enter Humira and poof--I'm in remission, very active, and can do anything, and no pain! My inflammation is completely gone! It does sting badly upon injection, for which my rheumetologis...

started six months ago to use along with methotrexate, I have since stopped the methotrexate. Only issue is injection reaction, but worth it!

I had sever psoriasis with mild arthritis and nothing else worked. After just 2 months on this my skin is almost perfectly clear and getting better each day. And the arthritis is non-exsistant.

Humira has given me my life back. What else can I say? Hopefully the costs will decrease as it is a very expensive drug.

I hate shots- but worth it b/c my stomach felt 100%. However, the reactions on the injection site was pretty crazy-Would last about 10 days (they did not hurt just itched)

I've been using Humira for about 3 years now. It has made a remarkable improvement in my condition. The self-injecting pen is more painful than the "regular" shot, but the difference it makes in how I feel, it's very much worth a few seconds of stinging. I only have to use it twice a month. I do use several other medications along with it. It us very expensive but luckily our insurance covers it. Plus, my rheumatologist is great. I highly recommend Humira.

Have been using for 2 years along with methotrexate. Flairups still sometimes occur, usually in shoulders. I'm a smoker, therefore full effectivness of drug is probably supressed. Drug was once perscribed to me in an "automatic injectible pen" form...didn't like the system at all and have returned to the manual injection. Overall, this seems to be an effective medication for RA pain control.

The Humira has done wonders for me. I just wish they had it in pill form.

I have been on HUMIRA for over a year, injected every two weeks. It is taken in combination with methotrexate. I am very satisfied with the results, no more joint swelling or pain in some time now. I just wonder what the long term effects will be.

Medication burns during injection. Helpful to numb the injection site (with ice pack) and let Humira warm up for 30 minutes first. Excellent results so far for Crohn's remission.

I developed pneumonia while on this drug--and I had the pneumonia shot a year earlier. I don't know if this drug caused it or not. I have RA and I could barely walk before taking this medication and now I can run!
