I am wondering if anyone can give me any advice about taking
Orencia
and stopping it to move to another drug and then returning to
Orencia
again if the alternative fails?

Oranchia
She did say
Orencia
was working, but if I couldn't tolerate taking them...it's up to me if I chose not to. I was on Rinvoq a couple months previously, had sie effects, so had to stop it. Then it was suggested I try
Orencia
. I'm still not sure about
Orencia
, even tho I'm on it.

Travelling with Injections
I am on an Abatacept
Orencia
injection and I was just looking for some advice. Due to the injection being weekly I will have around 20/24 pens to dispose of.

ORENCIA INJECTIONS
Could it be
Orencia
causing this I am being seen by Eye specialist for Type 2 Mac Tel and yesterday he told me the Mac Tel is stable and I should not have these problems. He is sending to EYE Hospital for second opinion. Does anyone have these symptoms?

artificial aortic heart valve
I was due to start
Orencia
after the op. I was wondering if anyone on here has experience of taking biologic meds whilst having an artificial heart valve (doesn’t have to be an aortic one!), and can reassure me?

abatacept
hello, I’m about to start abatacept (
Orencia
) and would like to know if anyone here uses abatacept in a prefilled pen. My gp seems to think it only comes as an infusion or as a prefilled syringe but I’m sure I have seen it referred to on fb as a pen.

Running Out of Options
(constant nausea, bloating, stomach cramps, diarrhoea, dizziness, so had to come off it) Sulfasalazine (took it for a year, maximum dose, no effect except brown pee and constant palpitations) Benepali (amazing for 4 months, changed my life, but then stopped working) Amgevita (no effect at all)

Orencia
So Iam hoping
Orencia
will do the trick for. The Jaks have a black box warning in Canada and they won,t allow over 65 to take it due to higher level of bc, heart attacks, lung cancer , blood clots. So I am 63 so concerned about that. Has anyone been on
Orencia
and how was it.

Traveling with Biologics Orencia
I have just started
Orencia
(Abatacpt biologics ) and need to travel with it. It must be kept at 2-8 degrees C for 8-10 hours. I have seen lots of things for carrying insulin (but the temperature is not as important for it) My other biologics were during lockdown and I don’t need to do this.

Orencia and Sciensus !
So back on 28 September I confirmed delivery today of
Orencia
for today (Abatercept) and Saturday got a late text saying not dispensed ! So today after an anxious weekend I got through to Sciensus and it appears to be in short supply.

Abatacept (Orencia)
I’m currently taking methotrexate and leflunamide. My rheumatologist wants to put me on Abatacept. Does anyone have any experience of this drug?

Rituxmab
Went on
orencia
and it's not working anymore. Rhemuy wants to stop
orencia
and start rituximab. I'm wondering if you guys can talk about your experience with the Rituximab.I know everyone's experiences are different on different biologics. I'm also wondering why I wasn't tried on Imuran.

Help with Lupus-RA Overlap biologics treatment options
She asked to choose between continuing with the
Orencia
injections weekly, switching to
Orencia
monthly infusion, weekly Actemra, or weekly Benlysta. Does anyone have any recommendations or thoughts on my initial reaction to
Orencia
? Will the side effects persist after multiple injections?
