Adalimumab-atto: Uses, Side Effects, and Drug Interactions
Brand names: AMJEVITA
# Adalimumab-atto Overview Adalimumab-atto is a medicine used to treat several diseases caused by too much inflammation in the body. It works by blocking a protein called TNF that causes swelling and pain. Doctors prescribe it for conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, Crohn's disease, and some other autoimmune diseases. The medicine comes as an injection that patients can often give themselves at home. It helps reduce pain, swelling, and other symptoms so people can feel better and stay more active. However, there are important safety things to know before taking this medicine. Because adalimumab-atto weakens the immune system, it can increase your risk of getting serious infections, so tell your doctor right away if you develop signs of infection like fever or unusual tiredness. You should not take this drug at the same time as certain other medicines like abatacept or anakinra, as that combination raises infection risk even more. Also avoid live vaccines while using this medicine. Always tell your doctor about all your other medicines and health conditions, and see them regularly while taking adalimumab-atto to make sure it's working safely for you.
