Adalimumab, sold under the brand name Humira among others, is a medication used to treat rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, psoriasis, hidradenitis suppurativa, uveitis, and juvenile idiopathic arthritis.[2][3][4] Use is generally only recommended in people who have not responded to other treatments.[3] It is used by injection under the skin.[2]
Common side effects include upper respiratory tract infections, pain at the site of injection, rash, and headache.[2] Other side effects may include serious infections, cancer, anaphylaxis, reactivation of hepatitis B, multiple sclerosis, heart failure, liver failure, and aplastic anemia.[2] Use during pregnancy is not recommended, while some feel use during breastfeeding may be safe.[3][6] Adalimumab is a disease-modifying antirheumatic drug and monoclonal antibody that works by inactivating tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFα).[2]
Adalimumab was approved for medical use in the United States in 2002.[7][2] It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines.[8] It is expensive.[9] A month supply in the United Kingdom costs the NHS about £704 as of 2018.[3] In the United States the wholesale cost of this amount is about US$5,041.[10] In 2014, a biosimilar came to market in India at a price of US$400 per month,[11] and biosimilars are now available in the USA and Europe.[12] In 2017, it was the 169th most commonly prescribed medication in the United States, with more than three million prescriptions.[13][14]
