Leflunomide and travelling stress!
I wrote recently about starting
Leflunomide
but I reckon I can't stay on it. It's given me itchy skin on my throat, a tingly nose and fingers and very loose bowels! Tired but unable to sleep. I travel by train a lot to see my daughter which has been very difficult anyway.

leflunomide and diarrhoea
I now have pretty awful diarrhoea from the
Leflunomide
, going to hang in there because the plan is for it to take over from Pred. Just wondered if anyone could cheer me up by saying it will stop [i]eventually[/i]. Been on it just over 2 weeks.

Leflunomide no more
She prescribed a 10 day dose of Olystr which she claims will help flush the
leflunomide
out of my system a little quicker. Just wanted to share in case you run into the same issue.

LEFLUNOMIDE - any info on side effects?
After 4 years of no meds at all, he's started me on
Leflunomide
. So far I've just felt a bit tired in the afternoon but that's fairly normal for me, but I've just noticed about 3 or 4 white spots on the roof of my mouth. I don't know if I've burnt my mouth or it's something else.

A NEW SYMPTOM, IS IT LEFLUNOMIDE CAUSING IT
They did question if maybe
leflunomide
could be part of the problem. Currently I feel it is a head cold, runny nose, watery eyes. Has anyone else developed oxygen level drops? I have never had a problem before I broke my ribs.

What are the risks of using Benepali (Etanercept) in relation to possibly getting Lymphoma ,Leukemia, skin cancers or serious infections ?
I could not tolerate methotrexate or
leflunomide
. I am mid seventies and my wrists and knuckles are badly damaged ,having had RA for around 45 years. The pain I get is more of an ouch than an ache and my wrists are weak, swollen and tender. He is concerned that my tendons might rupture.

Has anyone heard this before?
I did get some help from Methotrexate and
leflunomide
over the last few years. Rheumy discharged me early this year. However I wasn't feeling great recently and asked to see a rheumatologist again.

Leflunomide making me a lot worse?????
Started the
leflunomide
, I am on 23.5 pred, rheumy is myopic about getting my pred dose down. So I eventually agreed. So now the strange thing is I have very increased fatigue and am dizzy when I stand up. But then this afternoon my pain intensified....and it had been settling down finally.

Leflunomide v methotrexate
My rheum consultant is keen to replace my 15mg a week of mtx with
leflunomide
. My inflammation levels have been higher in the last few months but I’m not sure what the advantage of the swap would be? I am also on a low dose of sulfasalazine. Any experiences on here please?
