Rheumatoid Arthritis
I have been diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis. Doctor prescribed me Saaz DS tablet twice a day. However, for a second opinion when I consulted another Dr, he prescribed Tofacitinib. I am confused as i have heard that Tofacitinib is given to patients where Saaz tab doesn't work. Doctor told that Tofacitinib is more effective and potent medicine. Does it have more side effects than saaz tab?
