How do I taper off sulfasalazine? I am taking potassium as I also take lasix, terrible side effects

Posted on 23-Jul-2023 - Last updated: 23-Jul-2023

I have bruising, sores in my mouth, light sensitivity, high blood glucose, and blood pressure now. My PCP gave it to me for aid with my pain and ailing digestive system. After my a very bad blood infection from a colonoscopy things have been out of control. I have systemic scleroderma with overlapping RA and Chrohn's, plus many other autoimmune diseases... oh and also type 2 diabetes.

I am on MANY medications that both my doctor and pharmacist are aware of (as I hide nothing from any of them, I have had to do my own investigating) and am finding that many of the medications and supplements I am taking interact with each other.

That is the reason why I am here. Sulfasalazine seems to be one of the main culprits.

I need to wean off Sulfasalazine and do not have appt with PCP until May. 2010.

Thank you,
