Walekum Salam, I am sorry to hear that you are suffering from RA and unable to tolerate Methotrexate. It all depends how bad your RA is and then decision can be made on further treatment. Cara and Lefora are same with generic name of Leflunomide. You are in child bearing age so precautions need to be taken before conceiving. I can only give you the best advise after going through your investigations and post consultation. I hope this helps. Thanks. Dr Yamin Rashid
