PMR News from Med page 1.10.23
JAK inhibitors have shown generally equivalent effectiveness with biologic drugs for many other rheumatologic conditions, making
tofacitinib
a logical choice for testing.

TOFACITINIB
Anyone taking
Tofacitinib
? Just wondered what people’s experiences are. I had been self injecting Imraldi for 6 months which did nothing to relieve my symptoms. New meds definitely working well so far.

Rituximab not working at all after 3 months
The only treatment that worked well for this was
tofacitinib
, but unfortunately it caused me massive multiple blood clots in the lungs and had to be stopped. The blood clots have gone away and I was switched to rituximab. I took the second infusion on May 27th., 2021.

Limited UK Treatment
I tried a reputable Turkish doctor for
tofacitinib
but I was blocked because it needed to sign and be approved by the manufacturer as me having bone cancer. Off label for was forbidden!

Tofacitinib
I'd be very interested to hear others' experience (especially over-65s) of taking
Tofacitinib
. I only managed 12 days before stopping taking it. Admittedly I was apprehensive, but I don't know if my reaction to the drug was side effects or anxiety - or both.

Barasitinib
Hi all just wanted to know if anyone has experience of being on Barasitinib as my rheumy nurse phoned up and said they are trying me on this instead of
Tofacitinib
and it worries me why they have changed it as I felt I dont really want to take any of these because of the side effects I am already taking

Tofacitinib side effect?
I have just joined this forum and wondered if any one has had basal cell skin cancer as a side effect of the above drug, If so how was it proved that it was due to medication rather than sun damage? Thanks.

Stopping Immunosuppressant Medication During an Infection? Sick-Day Planning for the Coronavirus Outbreak
Daily oral medications like JAK inhibitors, such as
tofacitinib
(Xeljanz) or upadacitinib (Rinvoq), have a much shorter half-life — they’re eliminated out of your system within 72 hours. Monthly injections and infusions remain in the body much longer, notes Dr. Domingues.
