Hi , I started on tablets but could not tolerate it so then my rheumy suggested an infusion 15mins once a year and I don't get any side effects, brilliant. I'm sorry I can't remember the name.

Hi as a practice nurse we have several patients on the demo sumac injection, with no problems. They have their bloods checked before.
