I am not taking it, but I can tell you more about it.

Humira contains the active ingredient Adalimumab.

The most common side effects to expect are injection site reactions, such as bruising, soreness and swelling.

You can read more about the mediation here:

Does anyone else have experience using this?

Himira is the worst drug I've ever been on. You can try Vitamin D it has really worked for me. Also, I would try anything before Himira. It is so painful!!

I used Humnira for sever psoriasis for about 3 years. Twice a month injections. My psoriasis cleared up within a couple of weeks and remained clear. I never had any reactions, pain or problems with the medication. However, I recently moved to Mexico and could not get my meds mailed to me due to the need to have it refrigerated and it would have cost a fortune to mail it here. I haven't used Humira in about a year, and fortunately have not had any psoriasis flare ups. My doctor had told me I would have been on Humira forever. Anyways, I have about 10 brand new unopened doses stored in my parent's home in New England and would be willing to give it to anyone that really needs it and can not afford it. (Yes, I am aware of the laws, please NO PREACHING!!) Humira can run up to $800 a dose with no insurance. RIDICULOUS, but it is a very good medicine. Anyone needing Humira can email me.
