Suggest Treatment For Withdrawal Symptoms Of Humira
My dermatology doctor prescribed Humira to me because of my psoriasis. I started using Humira in February 2015 and stopped using it after 6 months after having cough, asthma, shortness of breath, whizzing and hard urinating. I am skin was not healed. After I stopped Humira, my 2 eyelids became sowollen, the asthma, shortness of breath,whizzing and problem of urinating continues and also found adenoma in my pituary gland. I know these are side effects of Humira. Am I right?

Hi,
During the withdrawal period, patients re-experienced symptoms of psoriasis over time with a median time to relapse (decline to PGA “moderate” or “worse”) of approximately 5 months. Patients who participated in this study were undergoing long term monotherapy treatment with adalimumab.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
