Humira

[Deejojo]

Can I still have my humira even though I have this rotten cough ??? Nurse is coming today

I would say not. It depresses your immunity so could allow the cough to get worse. The effects last for weeks so you might be affected by your recent doses anyway!

This is only my second injection Hun x

[hawker955 in reply to Deejojo]

Okay. Even your first dose might have affected you enough to make you more susceptible? I never take my Humira if I have any sign of a cold or other infection. It is not worth the risk.

Thank you very much for your kind replies x

I'm not sure what to tell you on this....depends on how sick you feel. My doctor has allowed me to take Humira with a simple cold, but once I thought I maybe getting the flu, the answer was definitely no.

Hi deejojo. Sorry to hear you're feeling rough but, as the nurse is coming today anyway, could you ask her what's best? Hugs

I saw nurse yesterday he said it was best not to have it so I went to docs he put me on a course of antibiotics 🤨
