  • Rheumatoid Arthritis

    Excess sweating and drowsiness are not common adverse effects of Sulfasalazine or Hydroxychloroquine. About 10% of patients on Sulfasalazine may experience some skin rash and gastrointestinal symptoms (nausea, vomiting, stomach pain). Hydroxychloroquine is generally well tolerated. The most considered adverse effect is of possible damage to the eyes with long term use. This injury to the eyes is reversible, if it is detected early and the medication is stopped. All patients are hence advised to have regular eye doctor visits to check for signs of this damage. Please speak to your rheumatologist about this and about your recent symptoms. READ MORE
