There were 799 study participants randomized to receive either Humira (a TNF blocker drug) and oral methotrexate in combination, Humira alone, or methotrexate alone.

I was perscibed methotrexate and Humira and had wonderfull results till 4 months into treatment I had drug induced pneumonia and spent 10 days in hospital. I am now having to try a number of drugs which so far are not working, just to many side effects.
