Additional Details
What is Humira used for?
Adalimumab is a TNF-alpha blocker — it binds tumour necrosis factor alpha, a protein overproduced in inflammatory disease, and blocks the signal that drives joint, skin and gut damage. It is prescribed for:
- Rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, axial spondyloarthritis
- Plaque psoriasis and hidradenitis suppurativa
- Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis
- Non-infectious uveitis and juvenile idiopathic arthritis
Dosage (as prescribed by your specialist)
- Rheumatoid & most rheumatology indications: 40mg subcutaneously every other week
- Crohn’s / ulcerative colitis: typically 160mg Day 1, 80mg Day 15, then 40mg every other week from Day 29
- Plaque psoriasis: typically 80mg initially, then 40mg every other week from one week later
First injections should be taught by a doctor or nurse; thereafter the pen is designed for self-injection into the thigh or abdomen, rotating sites. Never change dose or frequency yourself.
Essential safety information
You must be screened for tuberculosis and hepatitis B before starting — adalimumab can reactivate latent infections. Tell your doctor about any infection, fever, or history of heart failure, demyelinating disease, or cancer. Avoid live vaccines during treatment. Seek urgent care for signs of serious infection or allergic reaction. Common effects: injection-site reactions, headache, upper-respiratory infections.
Storage
Refrigerate at 2–8°C in the original carton; never freeze; protect from light. A pen may be kept below 25°C for a limited period per the pack leaflet — note the date it left the fridge and do not return it.
Humira vs biosimilar — a genuine way to reduce cost
An adalimumab biosimilar, Hyrimoz 40mg (Sandoz), is also available at onlinepharmacy.pk at a significantly lower price. Biosimilars are approved as having no clinically meaningful difference from the originator; many patients switch on their doctor’s advice. Our pharmacist can quote both.

Recommended Dosage of Humira 40mg Injection
The recommended dosage of Humira 40mg injection for adults with rheumatoid arthritis is 40 mg every other week.
For different conditions, your dodge can differ. For instance, in the Crohn’s disease, the starting dosage is an initial 160mg on Day 1 and then 80mg two weeks later on Day 15, and then you can continue with 40mg every other week.
For plaque psoriasis, your initial dose is 80mg on Day 1, and then you can continue with 40mg on Day 8 and then every other week after that.
It’s very important to talk with your doctor about Humira and how frequently to take it. The recommended dosage and schedule will depend upon your condition. For more information talk with Online Pharmacy or consult with your doctor too.
