The ones to be careful are the live vaccines but the shingles one for older people you have to time for two weeks before your TCZ. Obviously check with the person giving you the vaccine. They should do checks anyway. !
I have just had my flu jab and they said it was fine if you are on biologic as you all have said its not a live vaccine so all ok . Thank you to everyone
I was on Tocilizumab until January. My Rheumatologist stopped it because I developed Kidney cancer. However, in answer to your question I was on Tocilizumab for 10 years and for every one of those years I received a Flu jab. I did not experience any issues whatsoever.
