I'm on Tremfya and was told by my specialist nurse that if I was to get covid would have to stop the injection. I am interested to see if you get any replies to your question

Tremfya like other biologic meds will probably be an immonosupresive drug and certain side effects could lead to respiratory infections. So most likely if a user was to be covid positive or have any other chest infection, flu etc they would likely be advised to stop administering the med. I am no doctor so something as serious as this you would really need to seek professional advice.
