So, Filgotinib is a pill that’s supposed to help with more serious types of a condition called rheumatoid arthritis. And it works by helping to tweak how the immune system responds to stop RA’s inflammation in its tracks. You can get this stuff in two strengths – 100 mg or 200 mg.
They’re both in these easy-to-swallow film-coated tablets. Docs usually recommend a 200 mg pill, taken once a day, for it to work really well. You get these in bottles with 30 tablets each, just so you’ve got a steady supply, you know? Once you’ve started this routine, it can help keep your RA under wraps, maybe even ease your symptoms and how you’re feeling in general.
It’s super important to take your medicine exactly as your doc says, because not following their orders can mess with how well your treatment goes. If you’ve got any health issues, like trouble with your liver, kidneys, or tummy, or are on other drugs that might cause a mix-up with this stuff, chat with your doc first before starting it. You’ll need to keep an eye on things so it works as it’s supposed to and there aren’t any unwanted side effects.
