I’ve been put on Leflunomide an I’m awaiting an appointment with the nurse to tell me more information. Just wondering if anyone can tell me anything about them (positive and negative). Also can anyone recommend anything to ease toe pain when wearing shoes? Tia

I can tell you I was on Leflunomide for many years and never had any issues. The only thing you need to do is stop taking it if you get sick which is the case for a lot of drugs for chronic illness.

Great for me in remission for years but make sure you do the blood tests ! I have a rare problem with Omeprazole but would still say go for it, as it changed my life. Do remember it takes ages to work though its 12/14 weeks but so worth it.

Hi, I've been taking Leflunomide for years, I've lost track. I was given it to top up Methotrexate. No problems with side effects, although my blood pressure has risen. Hope it works as well for you as it does for me. You can download a booklet about Leflunomide from this link
