Haroon N et al. - The incidence of infections decreases with time on biologic therapy. Vaccination is effective while on biological agents, although live vaccines should be avoided. Biologic therapy in the setting of HIV, HCV and HBV continues to be studied, but data are accumulating in support of a favorable safety profile. There are degrees of differential susceptibility to infection across the rheumatic diseases, which should be taken into account in weighing the infectious risks of biologics in the respective diseases.
