This is why I joined this group. I cough and cough. Been on Actemra for a year and 7 months. It keeps me up at night. I really like Actemra, it works great for me....if I could just get help with this cough.

I had to have my BP medication changed because the one I was taking made me cough. This is a common side affect.

I too have a constant cough for the past 6 months clear flem comes up. But mainly in the morning. I don't smoke. But then I read Actemera cause cause this and continues cough can cause lung scaring. I would tell ur doctor What meds are u on?

I also have a chronic dry unproductive cough. Docs first thought I had interstitial lung disease related to the RA, but CT was negative. Still have cough and I was recently diagnosed with Sjogren's Syndrome, a persistent cough is a common symptom of this. Do you suffer from dry mouth or eyes?
