I started HUmira on 4/18/15. I have had constant diarrhea since. I get somewhat normal stool near the end of the 2 weeks between doses and then time for another. I don't know if this is normal but from others comments, I gather not. I was Crohn's symptom free prior to Humira.
Is it normal to experience diarrhea on Humira?

I had the same problem while taking Humira! I did some research and found that Humira contains Mannitol which IS a baby laxative. I suppose you and I are very sensitive to it. Lucky Us! Lol. Debbie
