Who is on or has previously been on Rinvoq for Crohn's Disease?

Posted by exitframeleft @exitframeleft, Jan 8 10:04am

I've had Crohn's Disease for 36 years and I'm in the middle of a flare. I just started the 45mg loading dose of Rinvoq 3 days ago and I am concerned about side effects, so I'd love to hear feed back from others.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Autoimmune Diseases Support Group.

I was on Rinvoq for about 6 weeks with good results until my Rheummy put a stop to it because of my recent breast cancer. Wanted me to be in remission at least 2 years. The only side effect I had was constipation which did not go away when I stopped it. My Crohn's disease has very inactive and except for LDN I take nothing for it. I do still watch what I eat.

Hello there. I’m in RINVOQ for RA and I have had zero side effects from it. It is an amazing drug for me. Here’s hoping that you get as much relief from RINVOQ as I am getting. With a history as painful as your has to have been God knows you deserve it. Please keep us posted.
