Cimzia withdrawal

I have not been able to take my cimzia injection for 4 weeks due to a delivery mixup.

I am suffering extreme tiredness, nausea and diarrhoea. Could this be a side effect of not taking it?

Thank you for your help and advice

Really? I have my delivery now (arrived today) so I'm about to inject but was unsure if the way I've been feeling was due to the fact I have not been able to maintain my cimzia dose

On a couple of occasions I have missed a dose of Cimzia because of infections. I only noticed a slight change in symptoms. A little tiredness and joints slightly more sore and inflamed.

If you are suffering more severe symptoms please seek medical advice.

I'd say no - I was unable to take cimzia for almost 3 months due to repeated dental infections and had no withdrawal symptoms. I also had a hiatus of over a month due to non delivery last year and none then either. Prob best to get checked over

Hi, sorry not been keeping up with you all, but I had been on Cimzia for 2 yrs, when a blood test showed positive for T.B and have now been off Cimzia for 1 yr, at first showed very little difference, but am now in so much pain and some days can't walk. dose anyone know if Cimzia will work as well if restarted? I am tired, but that could be the pain, also very high blood pressure and swollen feet. Be good to get some advice and what others think of this problem cheers all
