I’ve been on Kevzara for about a year now. I can’t say good, bad or otherwise about it as about 3 months ago or so I had to be put on lefludomine with it as I was still having a lot of problems with pain and swelling in my fingers, hands, and wrists. I still get pain and swelling in them frequently depending on what I do. Seems like anything I do causes a flare-up somewhere. Kevzara does knock me on my butt for 3-5days after taking it. I’m usually very tired, have general body aches and a bad headache so I basically state I have about 2 weeks out of the month where I can actually feel alive. I see rheumatologist in January so will be discussing this with them.
Everyone reacts differently to these meds so just because I react this way with Kevzara doesn’t mean you will. Best of luck. It’s a trial and error games and the doctors are only practicing medicine.
