HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Humira , like all medications, is associated with potential side effects that may or may not occur.
It is not known to be associated with vertigo, hearing loss or tinnitus.
The most common causes for vertigo are related to inner ear conditions. Meniere's disease is associated with vertigo, hearing loss and tinnitus and may be the cause of your symptoms.
It is treated with a low salt diet and medication if needed.
An ENT doctor or neurologist would be able to assess and treat you appropriately.
I hope this helps
