Has anyone experienced shortness breath while on leflunomide.

Hi ssivertsen,

I think that this is something that you should contact your rheumatology team about. Always best to get unusual or new symptoms checked to be on the safe side.

I've been having this symptom for several weeks. I just called my rheumatologist again this morning. My only advice is to call your rheumy and see what they say. It's a bummer and I have no idea if its the leflunomide, my RA, or nothing.

Short answer is yes. However, I'm also anaemia which also causes shortness of breath. Best to get it checked out.
