I am a 28 year old girl diagnosed with RA 2 years old. I was prescribed lefnomaide alternate days and methotrexate 15 mg once a week along with 5 mg folic acid daily. I have had real devastating problem of hair loss and I can't deal with it anymore ! Is there any alternative for drugs I am prescribed that do not have hair loss as a side effect ?
