Humira generally shows a positive result within 6-weeks in most UC patients, if it is going to. about 65% of us do show an initial response to biologics, like humira. I wish it was 100% but, unfortunately, it is not. I would not give up hope yet, you have a few more weeks in which you might get a response.

iPoop is right, it's different for everyone. I notice the people with the best results usually see those results quickly. There are people who need a few injections to see any result too though, so definitely do not give up hope.
