This product is YUFLYMA (adalimumab-aaty).
Read the Medication Guide that comes with Adalimumab-aaty before you start taking it and each time you get a refill. There may be new information. This Medication Guide does not take the place of talking with your doctor about your medical condition or treatment.
What is the most important information I should know about Adalimumab-aaty?
Adalimumab-aaty is a medicine that affects your immune system. Adalimumab-aaty can lower the ability of your immune system to fight infections. Serious infections have happened in people taking adalimumab products. These serious infections include tuberculosis (TB) and infections caused by viruses, fungi or bacteria that have spread throughout the body. Some people have died from these infections.
  • Your doctor should test you for TB before starting Adalimumab-aaty.
  • Your doctor should check you closely for signs and symptoms of TB during treatment with Adalimumab-aaty.
You should not start taking Adalimumab-aaty if you have any kind of infection unless your doctor says it is okay.
Before starting Adalimumab-aaty, tell your doctor if you:
  • think you have an infection or have symptoms of infection such as:
  • fever, sweats, or chills
  • muscle aches
  • cough
  • shortness of breath
  • blood in phlegm
  • warm, red, or painful skin or sores on your body
  • diarrhea or stomach pain
  • burning when you urinate or urinate more often than normal
  • feel very tired
  • weight loss
  • are being treated for an infection.
  • get a lot of infections or have infections that keep coming back.
  • have diabetes.
  • have TB, or have been in close contact with someone with TB.
  • were born in, lived in, or traveled to countries where there is more risk for getting TB. Ask your doctor if you are not sure.
  • live or have lived in certain parts of the country (such as the Ohio and Mississippi River valleys) where there is an increased risk for getting certain kinds of fungal infections (histoplasmosis, coccidioidomycosis, or blastomycosis). These infections may happen or become more severe if you use Adalimumab-aaty. Ask your doctor if you do not know if you have lived in an area where these infections are common.
  • have or have had hepatitis B.
  • use the medicine ORENCIA® (abatacept), KINERET® (anakinra), RITUXAN® (rituximab), IMURAN® (azathioprine), or PURINETHOL® (6–mercaptopurine, 6-MP).
  • are scheduled to have major surgery.
After starting Adalimumab-aaty, call your doctor right away if you have an infection, or any sign of an infection.
Adalimumab-aaty can make you more likely to get infections or make any infection that you may have worse.
Cancer
  • For children and adults taking Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF)-blockers, including Adalimumab-aaty, the chances of getting cancer may increase.
  • There have been cases of unusual cancers in children, teenagers, and young adults using TNF-blockers.
  • People with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), especially more serious RA, may have a higher chance for getting a kind of cancer called lymphoma.
  • If you use TNF blockers including Adalimumab-aaty, your chance of getting two types of skin cancer may increase (basal cell cancer and squamous cell cancer of the skin). These types of cancer are generally not life-threatening if treated. Tell your doctor if you have a bump or open sore that does not heal.
  • Some people receiving TNF blockers including Adalimumab-aaty developed a rare type of cancer called hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma. This type of cancer often results in death. Most of these people were male teenagers or young men. Also, most people were being treated for Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis with another medicine called IMURAN® (azathioprine) or PURINETHOL® (6-mercaptopurine, 6–MP).
What is Adalimumab-aaty?
Adalimumab-aaty is a medicine called a Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) blocker. Adalimumab-aaty is used:
  • To reduce the signs and symptoms of:
    • moderate to severe RA in adults. Adalimumab-aaty can be used alone, with methotrexate, or with certain other medicines.
    • moderate to severe polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) in children 2 years and older. Adalimumab-aaty can be used alone or with methotrexate.

  • To treat moderate to severe chronic (lasting a long time) plaque psoriasis (Ps) in adults who have the condition in many areas of their body and who may benefit from taking injections or pills (systemic therapy) or phototherapy (treatment using ultraviolet light alone or with pills).
