Anyone doing Simponi Aria infusion?

Posted by rshmc @rshmc, Jan 10, 2024

I began having autoimmune problems following the Covid vaccine. I was initially put on oral methotrexate, prednisone and sulfasalazine. I was then switched to self injected methotrexate, along with the other 2 meds. Because of side effects from the methotrexate, I had to discontinue it. It is being recommended that I start infusions of Simponi Aria. Anyone have experience with the Simponi Aria infusion? It’s a bit nerve racking not knowing what to expect.

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

I'm so sorry that you aren't well.
I was on simponi aria for a pre-Covid autoimmune disease.
I had been on a lot of similar medications for years before using it.

The manufacturer has a really good website for patients. I suggest you go there. It will give you accurate information and a lot of detail. Just google symponi aria- infusion.

Hope it helps you!

I just done one injection at dr office last month. It did ok. Only one of liver enzime slightly was raise. Have some rashes but don't know if is related.

I was on Simponi Aria infusions for several months until I moved two hours away from my rheumatologist/infusion center. I was then put on Simponi injections, which haven't worked as well, so my new rheumatologist is going to try to get the infusions authorized again with insurance. I had no adverse reactions with the infusions but do have an injection site rash with the injections.
