What Causes Extreme Tiredness After Taking Remicade Injection?

I recently had a Remicade injection. I have since experienced extreme tiredness, like falling asleep at unusual times, lots of gas as well as an increase in the frequency of bowel movements. Is this something that I should worry about or will it pass?

Hello,

Remicade injection is used for treatment of Crohn disease. It has many side effects like difficulty in breathing, chills, rigor, fever, stomach pain, nausea and pain at the injection site. Consult treating doctor for advice on drug withdrawal.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
