Sulfasalizine

[Guest guest]

I omitted to mention (significant in itself perhaps?) that I have attributed a

dulling of the mind to Sulfasalizine, and what I have described to the Doc as a

sense of unreality or disconnectedness from things around me. I was told that

this is not a recognised side effect of Sulfasalizine. Holding down a good job

and 'contributing' when you don't feel mentaly sharp is tough.

Does anyone have similar experiences or can this be attributed directly to the

PA perhaps?

Recently started on sulfasalizine along with vioxx and really feel

the difference. Haven't felt this good in a long time. Has anyone had

any side effects from the sulfasalizine. I've been fatigued and seem

to have a decreased sex drive lately. Has anyone experienced this? My wife

doesn't think thats such a bad thing. Dan

Geoff - I think the cloudiness is more an effect of PA than of the drugs.

Hey everyone! I hope everyone is having a pain free day!

Many of you know while I have RA, my daughter has psoriatic arthritis. She has

been started on her first DMARD, Sulfasalazine. Tomorrow will be 2 weeks and she

is currently taking 1 tablet in the AM and 1 in the PM. We are working on a 4

week progression to 4 tabs per day, 2 AM and 2 PM.

My question: Has anyone taking this medication experienced insomnia? This is the

only change to meds she has had recently and when she started the 1 at night,

she can't fall asleep until 3 AM! I am going to start dosing it earlier and see

what happens but all I can think is... What is it going to be like when she gets

to 4 tabs a day???????

Hi Kami,

I've been taking 4 tablets of Sulfasalizine a day for about 6 months now.

I've been having problems sleeping. Lots of times I'm up till 3 or 4 in the

morning. Then there are nights when I'm able to get to sleep around midnight

I'll wake up at 3 or 4 in the morning. I hadn't thought about it being

connected to the Sulfasalizine. And I can't remember if I had this problem

before taking it. Interesting.... Just wanted to let you know, yes, I have

insomnia and take Sulfasalizine.
