Screening

Before starting immunosuppressive therapy, consider the following investigations:

  • Tuberculin skin test
  • Strongyloides serology, if from endemic country
  • Hep B and C serology
  • Cytomegalovirus serology
  • HIV serology

Management

  • Latent TB infection: start treatment at least 4 weeks prior to starting the biologic
