Change from Adalimumab to Yuflyma

I have just had my second injection of Yuflyma. Since the first on 22nd Feb. my lips have become very sore and I’m presuming the tiny blisters coming are coldsores, never having had a coldsore before. This is mentioned in the side effects. Also when I clean my teeth it’s almost like a reaction between the toothpaste and my gums. I was perfectly fine on Adalimumab.

Has anyone else had anything similar please? Asking before I ring Rheumy helpline.

Thanks

No sorry no side effects like that for me on the brand Yuflyma. Were you on a different brand of adalimumab before? I had a bit of trouble sleeping but no other side effects to report at all. As you say best check with your team...they may know if you can expect this to be temporary or whether it's more serious. Good luck 🍀

I’ve had problems with tender itchy gums for years. It’s an ingredient in the toothpaste which irritates them. My dentist recommended pro enamel toothpaste, which has improved but not totally cured it, but I can cope better. I moved to Yufluma a few months ago and have noticed my lips are very dry now - may well be worth having a chat with your Rheumy team.
