AbbVie to stop production of 40 mg Humira pens and syringes

AbbVie reports its Humira (adalimumab) 40 mg solution for subcutaneous injection, in pre-filled syringe and pen form, is to be discontinued on Oct 30, 2026, for business reasons.

Humira is a widely used biologic for arthritis, psoriasis and inflammatory bowel disease — patients and prescribers should confirm the switch to biosimilars or other alternatives.

Requirements change. CareZelo links to the responsible bodies but does not determine eligibility.

Internationally educated professionals

Trained outside Canada? Start with the regulator.

  1. Identify your profession’s regulator. In regulated professions, the regulator sets the assessment and registration steps, not employers or CareZelo.
  2. Ask which assessments apply to you. Some nursing routes involve a national credential assessment; confirm with your regulator before you pay for one.
  3. Check immigration and work authorization separately. Professional registration and permission to work in Canada are different processes.
