Taken off Baricitinib and feeling much worse!
I was taken off
Olumiant
/Baricitinib (at least for a while) due to high creatinine numbers. I was taking it with Arava and an occasional NSAID. Honestly, I also ate way too much chicken around the time of the blood test.

How long does it take for Baricitinib (Olumiant) to work?
I thought that
Olumiant
was special because it works fast. But I've been on it for 10 days now (4mg per day) and I don't see any difference at all. How long did it take to work for you? Any experiences will be very much appreciated!

Raging but all is hunky dory!
I've been put on a 4 week course of steroids and the plan to start me on
Olumiant
. I've looked at the side effects of this drug and I'm not happy. I have a history UTI s which whilst my RA is raging living with the debilitating effects of continuous UTI s is not a pleasant thought.

I was wondering if you could help
I was then put on Bariicitinib-
Olumiant
, this made me feel very unwell so they then tried Orencia injections. That hasn’t worked either so now I’ve been given a script for Humira injections. I know all our R.A medications are scary, but for some reason this one has me a little cautious.

New to Olumiant/Barcinitib
Hi, I have RA and have just started taking
Olumiant
. I’m noticing a good improvement and I’m happy with it so far (in my 2nd week). I am however kicking myself now though for not having a flu shot before I started.

Methotrexate isn’t working for me and I’ve just got a script for
Olumiant
which I’m unsure about. I must admit I’m a little scared and tired of not having anyone to talk to that understands what RA is like.
