My Benepali story. Following 2nd injection I caught a virus (I think?) nasty sinus headache - chills- rash on torso, as that cleared I got a rash on my neck that was hot and itchy. No Benepali for 2 weeks. The I took another injection on Saturday, my neck, in exactly the same place is itchy and red, I have taken antihistamine.
If this is the only problem with it - do I carry on taking it?
I am concerned because I have had problems with just about every med so far!
A virus generally doesn’t mean a rash. You’ve got a rash twice so I would be inclined to think a reaction. I think it’s best you contact your clinic keep taking the antihistamines as a precaution until you get clarification.im like you drugs don’t like me 🥺
Yup check with doc as sounds like a reaction. I got terrible sinus issues with benepali but no rashes.
It would be best to report this immediAtely to RA helpline if you have one. I hope the antihistamine helps meantime.
Yes I did, I am not to take anymore. Another one bites the dust.
It’s sickening when that happens. I hope the next one will suit you and work well. Any idea yet what it might be?
It’s disappointing indeed.
Not yet, just a different strand of Biologics.
I’m luck though, my RA is not too bad...
I had my first benepali injection yesterday and I developed a rash over my cheeks and nose ... I'm going to try it again next week (as I was eating a lot of new foods on the same day) but I found it went down after 2-3 hours and I didn't take antihistamines. It does say side effects can include rashes, best to speak to your RA nurse x
Anyone on Benepali had root canal treatment?
Clicking joints 
Anyone else get a rash?
Hi, anyone else getting eczema flares on anti-tnf therapies?
Rash is back with a vengeance - anyone else have this reaction to MTX?
