Hello,
If you are taking a medication that can weaken the immune system (immunosuppressant: methotrexate, Humira or other biologic medication), which is often the case with rheumatoid arthritis treatment, it is recommended that you receive the Pfizer or Moderna RNAmessenger vaccine.
If you bring your medication list, you should be offered one of these 2 vaccines.
Have a great day!
