How long have you be on Remicade?

[Mehita]

My 13 year old will likely be starting Remicade in June. We are hoping this will be the drug that at least gets him through puberty. Just curious how long you've successfully been on Remicade?

not very long but ive read about people on here that have been on it for over 10 years. hopefully they'll chime in shortly.
I hope your son gets some relief from remicade.

I was on Remicade for 7 years. It never stopped working. I had to stop it because of a fungal infection. Hope it works well for your son. Good Luck!

Only since January for me, it's working wonderfully though.
