Like all RA related medications, they take up to 12 weeks to 'kick-in'. I am on Plaquenil (Hydroxychloroquine) as well as part of my combi therapy. Just a note on Sulfasalazine.

Been living on MTX and prednisone since August and not doing so well. Supposed to start Simponi (one of the newest biologics) on Tuesday. I hear good things about it.
