Can you tell me is diarrhea a common problem with rheumatoid arthritis and the medicine remicade (infliximab)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not typically: Gi problems can result from Remicade (infliximab) but typically are constipation, possible liver disfunction or infection related. Studies done show no difference in incidence of diarrhea between Remicade (infliximab) and placebo.
