Dear Trace1974,

There are a number of common side-affects to Tocilizumab (brand name RoActemra):

Although none of these are usually serious please do speak to your Rhuematology consultant or nurse if you have concerns about side-affects or if you think you are having an allergic reaction to your medication.

Best wishes,
