I answered you on the RA forum, but wanted to show you support here too.

Its been a good medication for me, along with MTX and Humira. Mild headache the first week, that was "cured" by NSAIDs.

Good luck, Anna

Hello,

I was on Arava a few years back and it caused a lot of nausea and stomach problems for me. I decided to come off it and recently started it again. The med does help me a lot with the RA Symptoms and pain. It is extemely important to take this medication as indicated because it can reak havoc on your stomach! Hope this helps you and good luck.
