Yes it is good news. NICE lowered the das score to make a few biologics more available for us.
Adalimumab (Amgevita) has been a life changer for me … I’ve been on it for about a year now, although I still inject methotrexate as well. Good luck. 👍

Amazing. Am hoping for my first delivery of adalimumab (Idacio) in the next few weeks 🤞🏻 so good to hear positive stories
I think NHS has realised that whist still expensive it saves an enormous amount of faffing around and this also equates to cash. I have been on Adalimumab for 19 weeks now and I am entirely free of joint pain and other RA symptoms. Only downsides I have seen are it tends to make your sinuses very stuffy at night and hard to breath through your nose without using nasal sprays.
