To Kahty, regarding Sulfasalazine

[Guest guest]

Dear Kathy,

My doctor has put me on Sulfasalazine also, but I take it with Arava. I don

't have an increase in migraines, but I have noticed swelling and I've had

bad edema in both legs since I started it. Have you or anyone ever had this

problem on this drug? It's not really listed a symptom, so I'm not sure if

it is causing it or not. In the meantime, I have bursitis in both knees, so

the extra water is really making things rough. Just curious if anyone else

has had any problems on this drug too. Thanks for writing. Fran

My rumy wanted me to take Sulfasalazine with Humira. Unfortunately, it gave

me such headaches...it is like a migraine if anyone has had these...I

couldn't take it.

But, my rumy said it was an antibiotic treatment that worked in

conjunction with another treatment.

Kathy
