can you take humira with Bacterial vagino | Arthritis Information

 

Can you take humir if you have bacterial vaginosis?  Is that an infection you can't have?

I have to call the assistance company today (doctor asked why im not on it yet) but need to know if i can take it with it.

if you are on anti biotics you should not take an immunosuppressantmy antibiotics are over, they didn't work.I take immunesuppresants and antibiotics all the time, because i'm on Minocin AND MTX. Many people on AP are also on TNF inhibitors.

You've been having trouble with BV for a while. I had that once and I always look for "natural soulutions" before meds, but I didn't find much for BV (other than hydrogen peroxide douches). Probiotics won't help because it's not a candida overgrowth. The only thing that worked for me was 10 days of Flagyl.

If I insert the propbiotic vaginally, it seems to work somewhat, but i have to keep doing it.  It doesn't completely go away, but it seems to take most of it away.  Swelling goes down and not so much gray.

I just did a 10day flagyl and it didn't work.  I ended another 10day a couple weeks ago which seemed to work until I needed this batch.

I was told i have a type that comes back over and over again.  They said people who have immune systems that are too weak end up having this type of trouble.

This is my 5th time since june that i had it.  I'm running out of options and my doctor said she won't give me humira if i have any infections and i don't know if this is concidered one (her office is closed for a few days).

I've used iodine douches in the past (sold as "medicated douche" or mix your own).  Use once or twice a day for several days.  Works like a charm (assuming you're not allergic to iodine).
