CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1
THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
Leflunomide is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with
active rheumatoid arthritis as a "disease-modifying antirheumatic
drug" (DMARD),
active psoriatic arthritis.
Recent or concurrent treatment with hepatotoxic or haematotoxic DMARDs
(e.g. methotrexate) may
result in an increased risk of serious adverse reactions; therefore,
the initiation of leflunomide
treatment has to be carefully considered regarding these benefit/risk
aspects.
Moreover, switching from leflunomide to another DMARD without
following the washout procedure
(see section 4.4) may also increase the risk of serious adverse
reactions even for a long time after the
switching.
4.2
POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
The treatment should be initiated and supervised by specialists
experienced in the treatment of
rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis.
