I have been on Humira since late August with little improvement of my UC. Seen my gastro yest and she called back today wanting me to start Entyvio in a couple of weeks being I just took my Humira this morning. Seems like I cant stay off prednisone. Im currently taking, Uceris, sulfasalazine, humira, canasa supp.
Just wondering if anyone has started this infusion and what side effects u migh have had or if it worked for u.

We have quite a few users on entyvio and most have said the infusion is very quick and easy. I have see many mention having slow but steady improvement. We have had a few try without luck too. As far as side effects, I don't remember anyone mentioning too many problems. Please do a search in the search box for entyvio, you should find some posts from the past.

I go for my third loading dose tomorrow. I've seen improvement since the first dose. The only side effect I've experienced has been a little fatigue the day of the infusion. It's gone by the next day.
There's a group on facebook called Entyvio Warriors. Lots of info being shared there.

Add me to satisfied Entyvio users .
I have had 3 infusions so far, much improvement in my UC.
Less trips to the potty , more energy & great feelings of relief after 2 years of not being able to enjoy life .
Next infusion in Feb. , can't wait yea
