Strategic steps to boost your immune system and avoid infections when taking Humira.
The FDA has approved the medication Humira to treat rheumatoid arthritis, plaque psoriasis, ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease, and psoriatic arthritis, which is great news for anyone suffering from these very disabling conditions.
Here is the bad news, however. Medications like Humira can lower the ability of your immune system to fight serious infections like tuberculosis and other infections caused by viruses, fungi, and bacteria that have the ability to spread throughout your body. Unfortunately, patients taking medications like Humira have even died from these infections.
So how can you prevent getting infections when taking Humira? Here are my recommendations.
First, carefully monitor the way you feel and the development of any signs of infection like chills, fever or cough. Report these symptoms immediately to your doctor and make certain he regularly monitors you for TB before, during and after treatment.
Second, improve your overall health by getting seven to eight hours of sleep daily, exercising regularly, actively managing stressful situations, and eating highly nutritious, immune enhancing foods like spinach, lentils, almonds, oranges, grapefruits, crab, salmon, broccoli, beef, halibut, chicken and turkey.
Third, observe careful hand washing throughout the day and avoid crowds and other activities, which may predispose you to infection.
Finally, take daily a multivitamin and mineral supplement specifically formulated to ensure day in, day out high-performance immunity.
