Re: Liver & Entyvio

Hello all,

Started Entyvio In October, by second dose I was feeling great. By my 4th dose I’m off all other medication. Still feeling good, then my liver enzymes shot up. Apparently my liver enzymes were up on the 3rd but they continued to give me 4th dose. I’m very angry that this happened. Now have to be followed by a hepatologist.

They are stopping entyvio (so sad) praying there is no liver damage. Wish I knew this was a side effect, may have made a different choice.
Hoping we can find a different regimen that doesn’t affect my liver and actually works for inflammation & pouchitis.

Unfortunately this can happen not only with Entyvio but other biologics and immunosuppressants. Both Imuran and Methotrexate messed with my liver chemistries and I had to go off both. It's unlikely you have any liver damage but be advised these liver enzyme issues are a risk with this entire class of drugs, that's why you go for blood tests. My standing order is for blood meds quarterly. Good luck with the hepatologist, hopefully no damage done.
