Rheumatoid Arthritis
"I&#039;ve been using Leflunomide since July 2007.  It took 3 months for it to become effective, but I have been pain free since then!  Wonderful!  BUT, I have developed chronic urinary tract infections -- 12 in the last two years.  My urologist is exasperated and has about exhausted his bag of tricks; daily Macrodantin (antibiotic) for over a year helped for a few months at a time, but I&#039;m now resistant to that.  I only take 10 mg leflunomide and really hate to think of doing without it, but my bladder is important too.  I&#039;m going to ask the rheumatologist this week about cutting the dosage in half."
