Hi, there is a lot of people on the Crohns Forum using this, with great success. I always say, if you read the leftlet
on paracetamol, you would never take them..!! Aside from a bit of tiredness, I dont have any of the side effects,
and from what I can remember, I think most of the people on the Crohns Forum who take it, have.nt had anything
extreme happen to them, from taking the injection. ..Best of luck...

Here's a link to a specific thread for psoriasis. We are all on different treatments and I know some are on Humira.
I'm on Enbrel which is a similar type of drug a with equally awful side effects and (so far) I have virtually none after 8 months. A few site reactions but nothing major.

I cant say for sure but I couldn't see how it would. You might have to say your on it but that should be it. Its something you should ask your Dermatologist or GP

Mod note:

As has already been mentioned KwackerJack, this is really a query for your doctor.

Just a reminder to posters to avoid requesting/giving medical advice.
