Hello, I got 3 injections of Dupixent, the last one was on 16.12.2024.From 18.12.2024 I have hellish pain with the joints and muscles. My question: do I have a chance that these problems will disappear again? Who, how long does it take? I would be happy for an answer. I'm very desperate 🥲

Joint pain after administration of Dupixent (dupilumab) is a rare but possible side effect. In case of its occurrence, it is recommended to consult a doctor.
If joint pain is indeed a side effect of the drug, it may persist for several weeks to several months after the end of therapy. Dupixent has a long half-life (17-20 days), which means that its effects can last up to 3 months after the last dose. In most cases, side effects gradually subside and subside, but the rate of improvement depends on the individual body's response. There is a good chance that joint pain will decrease or disappear completely as the drug is expelled from the body.
Reporting side effects allows you to gather more information about the safety of medicines and update data on them, which can help other patients in the future. We wrote about how to report them here: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jak-i-dlaczego-zglaszac-dzialania-niepozadane
