I wrote this on a question site, I figure I would have better answers from everyone who is already taking it, and has experience, and things...
heres the question i had on the site:
"I'm taking Imuran, and wondering besides the side effects, what it actually does in the system. I understand that it lowers the immune system (and for me it kills it, due to being on other meds that do the same thing), but does it have any affects on the metabolism, or brain activity or sexual or anything with the body?"
I'm pretty much aware of the side effects now, but I haven't seen anything mentioned about more than physical side effects such as head aches, nausea, and such.
I'm also wondering (I've noticed it can cause pancreatisis or something like that on a rare side effect)- but I'm wondering like steroids( prenisone) can cause osteoporosis is there anything that that this med can cause long term even after the drug is done with??
Thanks anyone who can help me with this.
