How often is Simponi Aria infused for rheumatoid arthritis?

Simponi Aria (golimumab) is typically infused for rheumatoid arthritis every 8 weeks after the initial doses.

The usual schedule is:
- Day 1: infusion
- Day 15: infusion (2 weeks after the first dose)
- Then: every 8 weeks after that

What dosing schedule applies after missing an infusion?

The exact “catch-up” plan depends on how late the dose is and what your clinic’s protocol is. In practice, rheumatology infusion clinics usually reschedule to keep the next infusion as close as possible to the intended 8-week interval. If you tell me how many weeks late the dose is, I can help you interpret what the standard schedule would imply.

Is the infusion frequency the same for other conditions?

No. Simponi Aria can be used for multiple immune-mediated conditions, and the induction/maintenance timing can differ by indication. The rheumatoid arthritis schedule above is the one specifically for RA.
