Didn't work for me.after 7 weeks I started being sick and I had developed drug induced hepatitis.i had to stop taking it and wait for my liver to recover before trying mycophenolate which I've been on now for 2 1/2 years now. Its trial and error to find which drug works for you .Good luck xx

Hi Goinglong 10 🌿🌸🦋

My husband tried it after his 3rd heart attack.

It gave him severe migraines. Had to stop it.

It made him so sick…once the migraine started it never left until he stopped taking Imuran.

I pray 🙏 that if you are on it that you will not have side effects and if you should that you’ll resolve them quickly.

Best wishes.

EJ 🤝🙏🕊❤️‍🩹🌿🌸🦋

I have been taking it for almost a year. One 50 mg on day and 100 the other.So far no bad side effects, but haven’t felt a big improvement either.

Good luck taking it. It is hard to find something that works..

Hi. I have been taking it since 2002 when I had a severe reaction to hydroxachloraquine. I have had no problems at all. I take 75mg a day in 3 25mg doses. I am 63 now and still go to yoga and pilates. I can't remember when I last had a bad flare up. I hope it works for you too, but don't worry if not , there are other drugs. It's finding the one that works for you. Good luck .
