Do you feel like you’ve tried everything?

If your child is like some others who have not responded well enough to conventional treatments—like nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), analgesic drugs, or disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs)—and he or she is still experiencing symptoms, you may want to ask your doctor about a biologic treatment.

HUMIRA is a biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drug, also called a biologic DMARD, or simply "biologic." HUMIRA is a prescription medicine used alone, with methotrexate, or with certain other medicines to reduce the signs and symptoms of moderate to severe polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis in children 2 years of age and older.


HUMIRA: A biologic that targets and blocks TNF.

The immune system can overproduce a protein called tumor necrosis factor (TNF), one source of inflammation that contributes to the symptoms of JIA. HUMIRA targets and blocks TNF-alpha, which contributes to joint pain, stiffness, and swelling.
