Cyclizine to combat nausea from Leflunomide?

[sjhewitt42]

Hi all,

So I started LEF 5 weeks ago.. still feel dreadful with nausea, headaches and dizziness. I feel like I’m constantly hungover! When I had my abatercept infusion last week the nurse got me a prescription for Cyclizine to try and combat the nausea. I have been off work now for over a week as I feel too I’ll and am worried that this on top will make me drowsy so haven’t taken it yet. I am not covered at work so need to get back there ASAP as I will be stressed and working stupid hours to catch up. Any experiences please?

Yes I been on it a while it really works well for nausea and no side effects or feeling drowsy works fine

Thank you for your reply. I think I will give it a go. I can’t cope with the nausea much longer!
