Does Cimzia Increases Weight?

I have RA and have recently started getting Cimzia injections and I CAN NOT afford to gain any weight since I have had multiple hernia repairs and the last one I had was a real back experience since it became neucrotic and I lost a significant amount of weight. I have been gaing weight and I want to know if Cimzia has weight gain as one of its side effects?

I really appreciate your concern, "Cetrolizumab PE." is a biological molecules newly invented and very little known about this, but this may not be increasing the body weight looking to mode of action of this molecule, so you need not worry about this, have nice day.
