Arava Dosage Is Confusing Amd Scary

A MyLupusTeam Member asked a question πŸ’­
Wichita Falls, TX

My rheumatologist wants me to try taking all of my weekly Arava on one day per week instead of the daily 10 mg because it is messing with my stomach and my daughter and i have researched for days on end and neither of us can fnd anything on this way of prescribing.
It seems dangerous ??

Talk to your pharmacist. They always have so much informTion and it is often in their head! They also have lots of info on interactions, side effects etc. mine has helped me several times. They are an often overlooked resource. Good luck.

I agree! My Pharmacist is the BEST! Years ago he notified and advised me to stamp taking a drug that was being recalled months before my insurance contacted me.
