Rheumatoid arthritis
AMGEVITA in combination with methotrexate, is indicated for:
- the treatment of moderate to severe, active rheumatoid arthritis in adult patients when the
response to disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs including methotrexate has been
inadequate.
- the treatment of severe, active and progressive rheumatoid arthritis in adults not previously
treated with methotrexate.
AMGEVITA can be given as monotherapy in case of intolerance to methotrexate or when continued
treatment with methotrexate is inappropriate.
AMGEVITA reduces the rate of progression of joint damage as measured by x-ray and improves
physical function, when given in combination with methotrexate.

monotherapy in case of intolerance to methotrexate or when continued treatment with methotrexate is
inappropriate (for the efficacy in monotherapy see section 5.1). Adalimumab has not been studied in
