I could not take Predisone. Dr put me on Actemra Infusion.
Is anyone else on that.
It is helping. I go once a month. Theresa

Side effects from Actemra? And from Pred?
So glad it's working for you.

No side effects from Actemra?
Why can't you take prednisone?
Thanks and best to you, trina! Glad Actemra is helping!

I do monthly infusions of Actemra too. I did injections of Actemra before changing to monthly infusions. I have been on Actemra for 4 years and I haven’t needed any prednisone for more than 2 years. No problems with Actemra so far. No plans to stop Actemra anytime soon.
