Biological injections
Iam on a biological drug called 'simponi' (
golimumab
). I have psoriatic arthritis. This is my second biological drug that I have been on, so far they have both not been able to help me. I have been on simponi for 12 weeks.

GOLIMUMAB Taken alone?
Golimumab
Does anyone take this drug on its own? Without other DMARDS.? As I am finding its a bit slow on working so now taking hydrochloraquine on third month to see if helps. Normally methetrexate is used but I had bad hair loss. Any advice welcome please!

I was offered a choice of four: Etanercept (a biosimilar), Adalimumab, Certolizumab pegol or
Golimumab
. Initially, I was shown a sideshow of anti tnfs in general, then shown the injection dummies and told how often they're administered. After that it was down to me: a daunting task!

Whilst being positive, I was mentally prepared for the
Golimumab
not to work but I didn't expect the pain to be worse and in a different part of my body. Has anyone had similar experience with
Golimumab
?

Golimumab
Just started on this medication, got all the training and delivery sorted out. Was a little weird my GP didn't know what it was but I had leaflet with me and he read thoroughly. Now I guess I cross fingers and wait to see if it works.
