Hi I take the drug sulfasalazine for 2 tablets twice a day for 3 months I have a problem with insomnia after them or can I somehow remedy it? Maybe there is a way to deal with these side effects? Best regards.

I also suffer from insomnia because of the drug. It is very difficult to live with chronic insomnia. I now take mine both in the morning and then by night time I sleep a little better. I also use sleeping tablets when things get too bad. Exhaustion is very bad for RA so we need to get enough sleep. The drug changed my life as far as pain is concerned but the sleeplessness is very difficult.

Insomnia is a side effect observed in 1-10% of patients taking sulfasalazine. Perhaps herbal preparations that facilitate falling asleep will be helpful. You can read more about this in the text: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/bezsennosc
