Day 44 on Biolosimilar Imraldi

[Juliachoo]

Hi all, An update on Imraldi after my 4 th injection Tuesday,

I am actually generally doing very well on it. A bit difficult to assess how well as have a lot on with next weeks impending house move to a bungalow & other major worries. But, last night I just could not sleep for severe ITCHING all over, ending up in me going downstairs in search of some cetirizine (I am already on prescription fexofenadine) at 3am to combat it. I took 2 paracetamols with some camomile to try & promote sleep & lay in my recliner until 6am when hubby shouted me back to bed. Finally got off to sleep about 6:30am. Consequently feeling completely trashed this morning & got so much to do & organise. Itching has calmed down although you can see where I have scratched arms, thighs & tummy . Anyone else experienced this & if so how long for? Have a good day all you warriors xx🤞🏼

I’m not on that one Julia so no help there, only one I had reaction like that to was hydroxy. I would definitely ring advice line though to check, better safe .. take care x

Ring advice line, sounds like an allergy. I hope it’s not the biosimilar.

I took antihistamine after my injection this week, two at night. So far so good.

Seems to have gone now, am hoping it doesn’t come back I really don’t have time to ring xxx

[charisma in reply to Juliachoo]

If it is an allergy, it could return without antihistamines. Hope you are clear of it though! 🙂

Oh dear, I hope it is a one off.

I think you should report it though.

Fingers crossed for you.
