In two phase III clinical studies through Week 48, 0.7% of Tremfya injections and 0.3% of placebo injections were associated with injection site reactions. Through Week 156, 0.5% of Tremfya injections were associated with injection site reactions. Adverse reactions of injection site erythema and injection site pain were the most commonly reported events of injection site reaction and were generally mild to moderate in severity; none were serious, and none led to discontinuation of Tremfya.
