Kevzara

Myrtle Beach, SC

Anyone taking Kevzara or had taken it? How long before you had some good results? Does/did it work? Side effects? Thanks!

Glad to hear people have good results with biologics. Kevzara is really different as it targets Interleukin 6 in the immune system and it is only for people with RA. I've tried so many, I'm hoping this works!

I was on Actemra as well. I got neuropenia. Had to go off. Guess I didnt realize it had to do with interleukin 6.

Hi @A myRAteam Member! I haven’t tried Kevzara but I’m curious as to how it will work for you — I hope it’ll work really well! I was on Actemra for a while, which is also an Interleukin-6 drug, and that was the best drug I’ve ever been on. I had to go off of it because it raised my liver enzymes. Hoping for the best for you!

Never heard of the one you asked about. Is it a injection or pill??? Xeljanz is my 5th drug. Had reactions to several. Good luck and keep us posted on results

Sorry Kevzara...I have not heard of that. I am on methotrexate and HydroxychlorthiaZide. I also use CBD under my tongue plus I vape CBD during the day.
