This drug was prescribed to me for a persistant sinus infection that would lead to pneumonia every november. Unfortunately, my physician advised me to continue & finish the prescription, despite the immediate joint pain and exhaustion the drug brought on. This drug triggered an auto immune disease- rheumatoid arthritis, which took me two years to get my body straightened out!! Lesson learned, listen to your body, not your doctor!!
