Hello @A myRAteam Member I just started the Simponi Aria infusion in April. I've only had the 1st two doses and will have my next one on June 26th. It was pretty painless as it is a very small IV needle, takes only about an hour from start to finish and except for feeling quite tired for 24 hours after the infusion I haven't had any side effects. I felt like it was really working after each dose for about a week or 2 but then felt like it hasn't helped much since after that but I'm trying to stay hopeful as it's still early on and I'm going to give it more time. Unfortunately I am currently having my worst flareup ever about 3 weeks ago and am on Prednisone again which is truly a miracle drug and a nightmare drug at the same time. Good luck to you if you choose to try it. I also take 3 pills oral Sulfasalazine twice a day every day and a once a week Methotrexate injection along with Folic Acid to try and prevent side effects.
