Amgevita and change in taste?

I started amgevita about a year ago, and have found a slight change in taste. I used to love Earl Grey tea - I know not everyone's favourite, but now I find no matter what brand I try, I don't get the taste I used to. My sister pointed out that maybe it was the drug, not the tea brands.

Just curious to,find out if this is a thing ?

And no, it's not covid. I'm part of the ONS trial, amd get tested regularly for covid.

Hi I take Imraldi another biosimilar to Humira, and my daughter is on Amgevita. Neither of us have had any change in taste. It could be something to bring up at your next rheumatology appointment. Sorry I could not be any more helpful! Take care, hope you manage to enjoy Early Grey tea some point soon.

Since using Benapali I've found coffee unpalatable and orange vile. x

I took Humira (original product) for four months and never noticed anything like that (in fact I never noticed it doing anything tbh!) some years ago but I always find antibiotics alter my taste and I can’t drink tea of any sort when I’m on them as it tastes like metal. 🤨 x

After starting Imraldi my taste changed completely. Everything tastes and smells like peanut butter. Had been a coffee lover but no more, can't stand it.

I’m on Amgevita and haven’t noticed any difference in my taste. We are all different though aren’t we? Hoping your rheumatology team may be able to help a little and you can get to the bottom of what has caused a change with your taste. x
