  • Title: Interstitial pneumonitis associated with infliximab therapy.
    Author: Villeneuve E, St-Pierre A, Haraoui B.
    Journal: J Rheumatol; 2006 Jun; 33(6):1189-93. PubMed ID: 16622902.
    Abstract:
    Interstitial pneumonitis is a well documented, rare complication of methotrexate (MTX). We describe a patient with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) taking MTX for more than 3 years who then developed severe interstitial pneumonitis after a third infliximab infusion. Other similar cases are reviewed. Infliximab may potentiate pulmonary toxicity of MTX.
