Diagnosed with seronegative rheumatoid arthritis at age 19. Tried hydroxychloriquine for the first year and stopped treatment due to insurance issues. Returned two years later and was initially treated with a medrol dose pack and placed on Sulfasalazine DR on follow-up. Iâ??ve experienced almost no side effects with this medication compared to the other medications mentioned. Currently taking 2 pills twice a day, going to move up to 3 pills twice a day soon. I will probably stay on this medication as long as I can given my age. Definitely recommend giving it a try for RA.
