For COVID-19 "Olumiant is given at hospitals for covid. Do not take this drug. It has 5 black box warnings. It can cause death in several ways including cardiac arrest, cancer, stroke, blood clots, etc. Research it yourself. They will give it to a patient and when they die, they will just call it a covid death and collect their money."

For Rheumatoid Arthritis "I have rheumatoid arthritis and had been prescribed methotrexate for several years. The effects of arthritis continued until the pain, joint stiffness were becoming so bad that getting out of bed and dressed in the morning would take over an hour. About 2 years ago my rheumatologist suggested that I take Oluminant and I was given a 4mg daily dose. Within one month the pain and joint problems had almost completely gone and I could live a normal life. I still have some pain and stiffness but they are totally manageable. Had no side effects that I am aware of."

For Rheumatoid Arthritis "I've been taking Olumiant since December 2020. It's worked fairly well with the daily pain (but hard to know for sure since I am currently weaning off long term Prednisone usage.) What I can tell you for sure is that it has reduced the swelling in my hands to the point that i can actually see some of my knuckles for the first time in years!!! Downside, it doubled my cholesterol levels and I will now have to take medicine for that."

For Rheumatoid Arthritis "Took effect very quickly . I previously had both knee joints and a wrist joint replaced, the RA was causing more and more problems and pain. I had been receiving methotrexate injection and tablets for about 8 years but they seemed to be starting to have no effect. My rheumatologist suggested oluminantand I started taking 4mg per day in 2020 and my weekly methotrexate dosage was reduced from 20mg to 10mg. I noticed a reduction in pain and stiffness within a week; after about two weeks the reflief was remarkable. Up to now I have very little pain and my joints and no swollen hands. Last week I had to stop taking olumiant as I am I am scheduled for surgery next month and I am very concerned about how this will react on me."
