Bruises on leg currently taking leflunomide & sulfasalazine & b12 injection per month & metroprolol(betablocker) what is the cause of bruises in legs?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bruising: most likely cause of your leg bruises is probably the sulfasalazine, which has anti inflammatory effects and similar to aspirin can cause easy bruising. As long as you are not having serious bleeding problems you are probably ok to continue to take the medicine
