UPDATE: I’ve realised that the eye monitoring is because of my hydroxychloroquine…. Not the methotrexate, and not leflunomide.
hello, I have an appointment today for specialist eye monitoring. This has been done at regular intervals since I started methotrexate, HOWEVER…. I no longer take methotrexate as I’ve recently changed to leflunomide. Does anyone know if the eye monitoring is still done for leflunomide? It’s a private company that arrange the eye thing on behalf of NHS, so I doubt the person doing the monitoring will know. I will also try and contact my rheumatology sept advice line.
