A member asked:
Over 70 with an underlying medical condition (crohn's) and taking humira which suppresses the immune system. stop taking the humira?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Wouldn’t D/C yet: Studies suggest that in general immune suppression might worsen outcomes in viral infection. On the other hand some anti inflammatory Rx may help mitigate the inflammatory cytokine storm. Nevertheless until more information comes in, most experts would not recommend stopping Humira unless a patient has documented COVID infection. Follow CDC guidelines l, stay away from crowds, hospitals etc.
