Sandra, I have Clindamycin ointment so the pills may be called monocycline. Will update when I get them, but have been feeling better after quitting Humira.

Michelle and Bonbon, Just seeing what happened or not to others. No, every BODY is different and h.s. is like an alien/devil 👿 of a disease. I know I have felt a lot better being off of it since February 10th.

Humira is not a cure! Like with everything that Dr's will prescribe.....what works on some HS people will not work on others, or will work for a while then not work. HS has a mind of it's own!

I was on Humira for a few months, but then it was causing some eczema so I stopped because I was going overseas and I got nervous lol. However, I was worse after my trip so per the doctor's recommendation, I went back on it. The eczema is much better. As long as I keep up on my cream, it pretty much stays at bay. However, since September, I have been battling with flairs. I would occasionally get them here and there. But it seems like every time I turn around I am battling another. Not sure why. So, I was on Humira for a few months, went off and went back on and I really haven't seen a tremendous change either way.
