Has anyone ever made this type of list for Methotrexate, sulfasalazine ?

I 've got the leaflets, trolled through the posts but my poor gabapentin brain gets bogged down .

I'm currently on hydroxychloroquine only but it's been suggested I need to change. My rheumy wrote joints on the top of sulfasalazine leaflet & joints/skin on methotrexate one. Is it that simple to chose one over the other ?
