@fore
I'm not sure what kind of insurance you have. Your out of pocket cost of Rinvoq depends on your insurance.

How is Actemra working for you? Is there a need to switch to Rinvoq?

@fore IV infusions are covered by your major medical insurance, Rinvoq is a pill and is covered by your drug plan, two very different insurance policies. Thus, the difference in coverage! It's not the drug it is the manner of delivery that is the distinguisher.
