DEFZA

Defza is usually a 6gm tablet used as an anti-inflammatory medicine. It can cause side effects such as gastrointestinal disturbances, muscle weakness, skin problems, depression, anxiety, irregular periods etc. It is advisable to take this drug orally. One tablet a day will usually suffice. For children however, it is recommended that the drug be administered on alternate days.

I had polyarthralgia one month back and my esr was 73 and CRP was less than 2. Doctor prescribed me hydroxyquinine BD, defza 6twic ( now tappered to once daily) and mext 10 once weekly. I took hydroxyquinine and defza, but scared to take mext 10 bcse i red its bad side effects. Please suggest me that wether i should take this drug or not, i feel 90% improvement by taking above two drugs. Please tell is autoimmunable disease is very dangerous like cancer?
