Does anyone know how long after a head cold one can begin the Cimzia shot again?

I was due a week ago, the cold just hung on but am feeling ok now. I take Cimzia twice a month usually.

I did take a z-pac which I finished last Thurs. My doctor said I could go back on Cimzia "as soon as I feel good." I chose to do the antibiotics to keep the opportunity of a sinus infection or bronchial involvement out of it. We're leaving on a cruise in 16 days. I gave the cold to my husband. Thanks for your reply.

Hello

If you did not have antibiotics it is a virus they are colds and flu

If it is a bacteria, possibly antibiotics given

Hope that helps
