I have a very bad head cold rheumy nurse said no Humira and to cancel my flu jab until completely over it ,this is the 4th time this year i have had to cancel either because on antibiotics or having an op which was not connected to PA,but my body certainly knows that it isn't getting its regular dose of meds

Yes, always delay your humira until you have finished the course of antibiotics. If you have a viral infection or other bug, consult with your rheum nurse before taking your humira dose.

Hope this helps. :)
