A member asked:
After starting humira (adalimumab) almost 3 months ago i am noticing hairloss. is this normal? will it adjust? or will i loose my hair completelly? thank you

Hair loss: With Humira, not a known side effect of the drug, mind you, you are on imuran (azathioprine) as well, both drugs increase risk of infection, keep a close follow up with your doctors. Probably the hair loss is an indirect effect of the suppressed immune system to control the original disease, just observe and report to your doctor, wish you wellness
