Dear Friend,
Thanks for sharing your query.
Rheumatoid arthritis is usually well controlled with disease modifying anti rheumatic drugs like Methotrexate, Leflunamide, HCQ. These drugs have some adverse effects on liver and bone marrow occasionally. You should follow your rheumatologist atleast 2 monthly and do your routine blood counts, liver and kidney function tests every 3 monthly. Hope I could solve your query.
