Manufacturer (Fresenius Kabi) is Out-of-Stock for Tyenne

Does your insurance cover Rinvoq? It is approved for GCA. Unfortunately it can take up to 3 months to take full effect. In any case it sounds like you will need a higher dose of prednisone to get you through this time. It's too bad about the Tyenne.

@jeff97 Well, sort of. According to insurance website, my out-of-pocket for a 90-day supply of Rinvoq would be $21,483.94. But then again, my Rheumatologist has never prescribed Rinvoq for GCA (and would not). I don't recall exactly what she said but even though approved by FDA for GCA (in April 2025), she intimated that it was not widely prescribed in Rheumatology "circles." In any case, Rinvoq is a no-go. Thanks for your comments.
