Hi everyone

Is anyone on Tofacitinib? My rheumy has said he’s going to start me on it. Anyone else on this drug? What’s it like? Side effects etc?

Thanks

Dee

If you put it in the search box you can see what people have already written about this treatment - quite a few people have been started on it since it became available in the UK.

As I have already written, my sister who lives in France is doing really well on it, hardly needs to take any pain relief, and her only problem seems to be a rise in cholesterol level.

Not what you're looking for?
