Rituximab...
So, 6 months ago I was offered 2 infusions
Abatacept
or Rituximab, I went for
Abatacept
as the first thing they told me was the worst side effect that can happen with Rituximab.

Abatacept causing skin rash.
I've been taking
abatacept
for about 4 years without any issues, over the last 6 months I've developed a skin rash with patches on most of my torso. Has anyone else had this problem?

renewing driving licence
It is not clear whether I need to inform the DVLA about the my rheumatoid arthritis or the medications I take which are
Abatacept
, Methrotrexate & Sulfasalazine. None of these effect my driving & I have been on these medications for some years. I have no adaptations to my car.

How long before biologic Abatacept (Orencia) starting working
Hi, I am new to this forum and would be grateful if anyone could advise on how long it took biologic Orencia to work. I have been on weekly injections of Orencia now for 6 weeks but not noticing any major improvement with my pain and swelling?

Break in Treatment
Hi All A few months ago, my previous treatment for RD,
Abatacept
was stopped and I was to start Upadicitinib. However, due to this coinciding with a shingles and covid vaccines, I didn't actually start the new medication.
