What Causes Dizziness, Blurry Vision And Hand Tremors While On Methotrexate And Prednisone?

I just started Humira shots one week ago. This week I took my Methotrexate and afterward felt dizzy, had some blurred vision, hand tremors and anxiety. I started Humira in order to gradually decrease my prednisone. I m wondering if my combination of medications is causing this. Thanks, Elaine

Hello,

Blurry vision, dizziness & hand tremors are the side effects of Humira shots. You are suggested to urgently report to your treating doctor. You need to stop taking the shots before the symptoms get worse.

Yes, Humira does interact with Methotrexate or cortico-steroids that suppress the immune system.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care.

Regards,
