6MP , MTX: The medications that can be used with Cimzia (certolizumab pegol) most commonly include 6mp - azathiorine or Methotrexate (in addition to Mesalamine / steroids). Natalizumab is an other biologic that can be used in those where anti-tnfs (like cimzia) fail, but they are not used together.
