I was recently prescribed Leflunomide 10mg Tablets for my rheumatoid arthritis. I've been on it for about a month now, and while I've seen some improvement in my symptoms, I'm also experiencing some side effects that have me concerned. Has anyone else had issues with hair loss or stomach pain? How have you managed these side effects? Additionally, I'm curious about the long-term effects of this medication. Any insights or advice would be greatly appreciated!

I've been on Leflunomide 20mg Tablets for about three months now to treat my rheumatoid arthritis, and I've noticed a few side effects that concern me. I've heard from others about a variety of side effects, so I wanted to start a thread to share my experiences and hear from others who are also on this medication. I've experienced some hair loss and stomach upset, which seem manageable, but I'm a bit worried about the more serious side effects, like liver problems and severe skin reactions. Has anyone else experienced any of these more serious issues? Any advice on how to monitor these concerns would be greatly appreciated. On a different note, are there any non-medical things that have helped with the side effects of this drug? I'm hoping to find some natural remedies or lifestyle changes that might make the journey a bit easier. Let's support each other and share our experiences—keep it constructive and helpful!
