Abatacept.....what comes after....
Anyhow he reassured me that there is indeed something after
Abatacept
if I run true to form and reject this drug too. Now don't ask me the name of the drugs as to be honest I just wanted to know that there was something!

Tocilizumab or abatacept
My rheumy is giving me a choice of tocilizumab or
abatacept
. Just wondered what everyone's views of them are. Xx

Hello there, I was just wondering if anybody else has been on
Abatacept

medibird Orencia side effects
Depending on your dose, adult persons will receive between 2 and 4 vials of
abatacept
per infusion. Children may receive fewer vials of
abatacept
per infusion, counting on their heaviness.

Abatacept
I have been told the next drug they will try will be Tocilizumab but after reading about the drugs on the internet i came across one called
ABATACEPT
that is supposed to be as effective as the others but with a lot less side effects but no one has mentioned this one to me.

"Youre just about to be ill" - Erm okay then..?
My immune system is already really really low but now that I have the
abatacept
inside me, its as if I dont have an immune system at all. Apparently, if they had waited to see what my blood results were yesterday before giving me my
abatacept
, then I wouldnt have been allowed to have my infusion.

Another plea for abatacept experience
I had always maintained my RA with NSAIDs with the occasional cortisone jab, but in the last four years, I have tried embrel, leflunomide, toxillizumab and now
abatacept
.

Has anyone had experience with having takenTocilizumab or Abatacept?
I have been asked to consider having the above medication after 3 biologic failures. Is anyone on the above meds or have any knowledge/experience of taking them? I have just come off Cimzia,not worked and too many side effects to mention! Many thanks Asa's mum xx

Wanted: People in the West London area currently on Abatacept (Orencia).
NRAS has been asked to help find a suitable Orencia patient that can be interviewed for a video to be used at a BMS internal conference. BMS would be looking for the patient to provide some answers around: - the background to their medical condition - how current treatment has been effective (compared

Abatacept!
Is anybody out there trying abacept and fairly ancient in body (50+) but young in mind. I am having a rough time on it i.e. heartburn, aching joints and depression. Would love to hear of any other guinea pigs.

Anyone out there with Psoriatic Arthritis?
This may also explain why the Enbrel was not particularly successful but
Abatacept
can be better in these cases - who knows, wait and see eh? Caroline

Has anyone had good results with Abatacept?
I know
Abatacept
takes a while to work, but I'm thinking that I dont want another infusion on the 21st.

ME, RA and now Osteoporosis too- oh yippee.
He told me he didn’t feel optimistic that I would be allowed
Abatacept
. So I need to write another appeal. Pleading and begging for drugs that will keep me, mobile and gainfully employed is so utterly humiliating.

Abatacept refused due to cost?
As I have tried almost everything else and nothing has halted this horrible disease I was prescribed
Abatacept
by my specialist only to have my local trust refuse to give it to me on the grounds of cost. I have written a letter of appeal but what else can I do?
