Switching From Adalimumab to Benepali

After a few years with Adalimumab with increasing skin psoriasis to the hands and back of head one my rheumy has advised Benepali ...not because I love Italian food but it was havoc on my skin.

I ask has anyone had a transition with these two biologics with any symptoms?

I did the same but from Abatercept to Etanercept because of psoriasis. It did go. I could not bear the itch, the cream to try to help which didn’t work and caused me to slip and break my leg and ankle. It was worth the swap and in fact I went back on Etanercept because it works well for me.

I swapped after Adalimumab stopped working for me, so far so good on Benepali, I gave been on it for 5 months and seem under control….

Did this swop about 18 months ago and on benepali I have been the best I have been since diagnosis 8 years ago and have been able to reduce methotrexate from 25mg to 10mg. Hope all goes well for you!
