Is there a specific reason your trying to avoid Humira ??
The risk factors are about the same for biologics ..
What dose of remicade are you on ? And frequency ?
Have you tried adding Mtx to the remicade to improve things?
EEN added to remicade sometimes helps..

What other drugs have you tried ?

Welcome to the community!

If your doctor has shrugged their shoulders and given up, my suggestion would be to seek out an IBD specialist in your area and see if they can come up with something new.

Also, the link in my signature leads to a company that is going to start a clinical trial in Ulcerative Colitis. You may want to check it out.
