Where do I find the current FDA-approved prescribing information (package insert) for Humira (adalimumab), and what does it cover?

Where to find it: The current FDA-approved prescribing information for Humira is AbbVie's own label on DailyMed (the NLM's repository of FDA labeling), set ID 608d4f0d-b19f-46d3-749a-7159aa5f933d. It is titled "HUMIRA (ADALIMUMAB) KIT [ABBVIE INC.]", has an effective date of 23 December 2025, and is marked "Revised: 12/2025" [1]. It is licensed under BLA 125057 (351(a), AbbVie Inc., US licence 1889, CDER), first approved 31 December 2002 [2].

Approach: I searched DailyMed's current labels for "Humira" and the FDA Purple Book (August 2026 edition) for BLA 125057. I compared the three Humira labels DailyMed returned by labeler, effective date and section list.

Which DailyMed label to use

LabelerEffectiveRevisedNote
AbbVie Inc. (BLA holder)2025-12-2312/2025Reference label [1]
Cordavis Limited2025-12-2312/2025Same content as AbbVie's [3]
A-S Medication Solutions (relabeler)2024-05-1602/2021Out of date: it still lists the discontinued vial and older strengths [4]

What the current label covers (from AbbVie's label [1])

  • Recent major change: Warnings and Precautions, Autoimmunity (5.9), dated 7/2025. It now tells prescribers to stop Humira if a lupus-like syndrome or autoimmune hepatitis develops. The 2021 relabeler version only mentions lupus-like syndrome [4].
  • Boxed warning, serious infections: TB (including reactivation of latent TB), invasive fungal infections, and opportunistic bacterial and viral infections. Patients must be tested for latent TB before and during therapy.
  • Boxed warning, malignancy: lymphoma in children and adolescents, and postmarketing cases of hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma (HSTCL), mostly in young patients with inflammatory bowel disease who were also taking azathioprine or 6-MP.
  • 1 Indications: Humira is a TNF blocker indicated for:
    • rheumatoid arthritis (adults)
    • polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis (age 2 and up)
    • psoriatic arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis (adults)
    • Crohn's disease (adults and age 6 and up)
    • ulcerative colitis (adults and age 5 and up). The label notes it has not been shown to work in patients who lost response to, or could not tolerate, TNF blockers.
    • plaque psoriasis (adults)
    • hidradenitis suppurativa (age 12 and up)
    • non-infectious intermediate, posterior and panuveitis (age 2 and up)
