I've only been taking leflumonide for about 3.5 months, but I haven't noticed that it makes me tired (other than experiencing the "normal" fatigue that goes along with RA). I usually take it at lunch time. If you think it's causing you to be tired and sleepy then maybe try taking it right before bed?
