So the thing with side effects is they are potential side effects
No guarantee
Ds reacted to remicade x2(second time pre treat of iv steroids )
But was fine on humira for over 5 years until it stopped working
6-mp raised his liver enzymes but everything was normal once it was stopped
He gets sick on methotrexate injections
But is perfectly fine on oral tablets
He has had anaphylaxis to other drugs before
Even with all that he is perfectly fine on Stelara plus methotrexate no issues
And clean scopes
My point is everyone can react differently to meds
Even allergic reaction to one med but be fine with others
You try and go from there
If you get side effects then you move on to the next
Keeping Ds intestine healthy is our top Goal with minimal to no side effects
He was dx at age 7
That means 83 years of disease activity
He is now 15 so far so good
Be aware Entyvio takes 6-12 months to be effective
And you will need a bridge therapy until it is effective
Steroids including Entocort can induce adrenal insufficiency (Ds hAd this from too many steroids over the years due to arthritis)
He now avoids steroids as much as possible and his adrenal glands are working again
