Re: Arava and leg tingling

Lee,

Yes, it's possible that Arava (leflunomide) is causing the tingling.

That's a known side effect - peripheral neuropathy.

I have been having trouble with tingling in hands -- almost as if they were

asleep. I had never thought it might be from Arava. It has only been going on

a few months. I have been on Arava approximately four years.
