Members shared mixed experiences with RINVOQ for rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic conditions, with several reporting significant improvements in psoriasis plaques and one member celebrating complete pain relief and a normal-feeling spine after just one month of treatment. Many noted that pain relief can take time to appear, while skin improvements often come more quickly, though some members remained skeptical that any medication could truly help their pain. A recurring theme was the importance of patience with new treatments, honest communication with doctors about what is and isn't working, and recognizing that every person responds differently to medications.

I'm on Rinvoq and have had no trouble with it. My Psoriasis plaques have cleared up. there is no difference in pain yet. They said that may take some time. But no bad side effects yay

I’ve only seen the commercial for it. It doesn’t seem like anyone knows about Remicade either? I will be put on that soon and want to talk with someone about it. Oh well. 🤷‍♀️

Googled it:
RINVOQ is a once-daily pill for adults with moderate to severe RA that helps tame joint pain, swelling and stiffness, stop irreversible joint damage, and significantly reduce RA fatigue.
I have not used it.

Hi Marnee. Have you tried to look it up in the question section? There has been some questions about it? And some answers.. i don’t know if it is helpful.. and in facebook you also have a group: acial spondyloarthritis. Also there you can search under Remicade and i am sure there has been some questions and andwer there for you..
Until now i have been on Hymiroz and now Inflectra and probably changing to Rinvoq..

I take Rinvoq and so far have had good luck at least on the Psoriasis side. I'm unfortunately beginning to accept there just isn't a help for the pain.
