Hi I'm on tocilizumab selfself-administself-administered injections and hydroxy chloroquine. Has anyone on tocilizumab noticed a weight increase? I can't seem to shake off the excess weight. Thanks

Overweight
I've been on Tocilizumab for a couple of years and have steadily increased weight. I try to eat healthy and take gentle exercise when able but nothing seems to stop the weight going on. So far I've gained about 20 pounds.
Hi Nesantos,
I gained 3 kg, I have had 3 infusions, I also can't get them off, frustating!
Wish you all the best

I have never been able to gain weight but on Actrema I am. I also have terrible mouth sores.
Yes I have also put on weight and have went up two dress sizes so far. Has anyone else having bowel problems. My stomach has swollen so much I look like i am full term pregnancy. I look more pregnant than when I was pregnant. My GP is treating me at the moment for an impacted bowel. I hate this extra weight as I am only 4ft 11inches so really can't afford to be this heavy. I cannot shift this weight at all and is really getting me down. Irene
