Members shared mixed experiences with Humira and Methotrexate for rheumatoid arthritis, with some describing the combination as life-changing and others reporting it stopped working over time or never provided relief at all. Several members mentioned needing to add or switch to medications like Orencia, prednisone, or NSAIDs to manage persistent pain and inflammation, with one member celebrating being able to return to playing badminton after switching from monthly injections to Humira. A recurring theme was that finding the right treatment is deeply personal and often requires trial and error, as what works wonderfully for one person may not work at all for another.

I am currently taking 20 mg. Methotrexate & humira. (Been on humira a year) I also was on diclofenec (had to discontinue due to ulcers) That combo worked pretty good. Since I had to drop the diclofenec, life has been horrible! I am still having good results from the methotrexate/humira. Good luck!
