Has Anyone Tried Humira As A Form Of Treatment For HS?
A myHSteam Member asked a question 💭

I have been prescribed Humira for my HS because nothing else I’ve tried has worked. I just wanted to hear real experiences from real people and not just my doctor.

I was on Humira for about a year for HS until I was hospitalized by it. It worked great for me, however the side effect of me being on it was asthma flare ups and pneumonia.

Been on it for over a year no problems, less frequency in flare ups. I can tell when I stop taking it, flare up quick

I was on it for 8 years, but for my colitis. Not HS specific. I still had a fair amount of “aliens” (that’s what I call them), but unfortunately I can’t say if they would have been worse without it. What I can say, is the shots are simple, and I didn’t have any side effects. 🤞🏼🤞🏼For you.
