First visit to a new Dentist
The Rheumatologist has put me on Apo-
Leflunomide
10mg in the meantime. Not sure if I can take this and the steroids whilst going to the dentist?

Leflunomide
May I please pick your brains about side effects of
leflunomide
? I had to stop MTX after two weeks of low dose metoject a as my liver and kidneys were not happy. I then didn't have any medication and had an massive flare of RD.

That's it, I'm done working
Still on 13mg of steroids after starting at 15mg 2 years ago, have been up and down in between and also taking 10mg of
leflunomide
. Hopefully I can settle into retirement and manage this illness a bit better. I still struggle to pace myself well enough but I keep trying.

PMR & Alcohol
About 3 or 4 months ago I was put on
leflunomide
to try and help with the steroid reduction. As recommended I did not drink any alcohol whilst taking
leflunomide
. Unfortunately I had a bad reaction to gage
leflunomide
so had to stop taking it.

Leflunomide and cholesterol
My Gp just told me she thinks it is
leflunomide
( side effects). Has anybody heard about that? Does
leflunomide
give you high cholesterol? My doc will contact my rhumatolog asking to stop
leflunomide
. Something else to worry about..

RA and hot flushes
I'm not on any rheumatoid meds at the minute due to adverse effects to mxt, sulphasalzine,
leflunomide
, Enbrel and recently Humira. I have taken daily prednisolone since 2013 and I'm desperate to get off them but can't until they find a medication that works for me.

Leflunomide - Stomach Pain
I have been taking 20mg of
leflunomide
a day alongside 15mg of pred for the last 8 weeks. Over the last week or so I have been getting severe stomach pains, sometimes during the night but this morning it was when I woke up. The pain is quite severe and lasts for about an hour.
