I,ve just come down with a cold,tight chest and i,ve lost my voice,can i still inject my abatacept on tuesday.

Don't really like giving advice about drugs, but I'm on enbrel and I was told if I don't feel well on injection day then not to inject. If I was you and beings your on an anti tnf drug I would see my GP tomorrow or ask for a telephone consultation. I've been told that because I take an anti tnf drug there is a red flag on my doctors notes and if I ring about anything that may be an infection I should get an appointment that day.x x

its usual to not take a biologic if you have an infection but ensure your ra nurse knows and get your gp to check infection gone to restart drugs asap
