Hi All

I'm on Leflunomide and when I have my routine bloods done the nurse always asks if I have a sore throat and says I should ring up if I get one does anyone know why?   It's just I've got a sore throat today thanks in advance x

@MandyG Hi Mandy, thank you for posting :) 

We have a medications unit on Carenity where members track, evaluating and share their experiences concerning their treatment. You can access the information sheet about leflunomide by clicking HERE. There you can see how other members evaluated their medication and share how you find it.

Have any other members used this to treat RA? Do you have anything to share? :) @Shamira‍ @SionedGoch‍ @Jantee‍ @Annfoster59‍ @Eshears‍ @Eils1946‍ @lesjames‍ @talisia09‍ @Gwen44‍ @hmackay‍ @Jill884‍ @Dina54‍ @CJK1968‍ @Graysuetpud‍ @Whiskers‍ @pandora61‍ @Nanma1‍ @JulieMcC‍ @Dogwhisper‍ @Kayhowlett‍ @Milldo‍
