A member asked:
How much does taking weekly humira (adalimumab) injections lower my immune system?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not definitive: It lowers resistance, but unclear how much. Essential is avoiding infectious exposure. Avoid individuals who have had live vaccines - for 30 days after vaccination.
