I have joint pain and started medicines like Salazopyrin and HCQ, but after taking them, I am getting severe pain, fever, and swelling in my feet. Should I continue these medicines or stop them?
Severe pain, fever and swelling after starting these medicines may suggest a reaction or a flare of your condition. These symptoms should not be ignored and need prompt medical review. Do not make changes on your own, as stopping or continuing both can have risks. Contact your doctor as soon as possible to assess and adjust your treatment safely.
