Guest guest Posted May 1, 2009 Report Share Posted May 1, 2009 Your friend may be thinking of Sulfasalazine and for some it does work but on average it is much less effective than Methotrexate. Also some are allergic to all sulfa drugs so if you try it, be careful. God bless.

Guest guest Posted May 1, 2009 Report Share Posted May 1, 2009 I take that with flurbaiprofin. My blood tests have all come back negative but just in case my doctor put me on this. The stiffness has gone away but now I have a frozen shoulder. ________________________________From: reneehearttoheart <reneehearttoheart@...>Rheumatoid Arthritis Sent: Thursday, April 30, 2009 10:50:43 PMSubject: sulfa drugSomeone told me there is a sulfa drug out there and it works as well as the methx one with less side effects and long range problems.
