This Medication is Lifesaving

Comments about Leflunomide 10mg Tablet
This medication is lifesaving for my Bella. I tried weening her off of it but found that her old symtoms (difficulty walking, very tired and just not herself) were coming back so I put her back on the medication as the doctor prescribed. She has an autoimmune disease that she has had since she was two.
