So this is incredibly embarrassing. I misread the loading dose instructions for Simponi. It says you do 200 MG week 0, then 100 week 2, then maintenance dosage every 4 weeks. They send you two auto injectors to start. As you can probably guess, I did 1 dose 2 weeks ago, then the other dose this morning. Should I try and order a dose to come this week and get the 200 mg this week? Has anyone else underdosed the loading dose? I've already reached out to my doctor to see what she says.

You'll be fine, it's just to get the drug level up. So you should order the third pen to catch up, and then keep to the normal schedule smile
