Hi Dr. Just put me on Arava. 1 pill a day. 20mg. Any side effects? Does it work for any of you?
@A MyLupusTeam Member. Arava has really helped me. I have been on low dose prednisone for years and now I am tapering off of it because the Arava is helping so much.
Sorry it has taken so long to reply having computer issues, but my R Doc says its for arthritis and so far i cannot tell if its working i have benn so so but time will tell with this weather its getting cold and rainy that sure doesnt help much either, can you let me know what you think of the arava and if its helping you? And also what other meds do you take with it?
I juststarted taking a low dose of arava with plaqunil and cymbolta , prednisone when needed, its supposed to take time to get in your system as of nowit just makes me tired more so than i already am😬
Give it about a week to notice improvement. I think this med is a mild one.
How long does it take before Avara starts to provide relief? I am also on Methotrexate because I also have RA.
