Leflxmomide is a disease-modifying antirheumatic drug which was approved in August 1998 by the US FDA for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. It inhibits dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) and as a consequence it blocks the de novo pathway of pyrimidine nucleotide synthesis, which is crucial for T cell activation and proliferation. The tolerability of leflxmomide is rather poor, as up to 50% of rheumatoid arthritis patients withdrew from leflxmomide xvithin the first year mostly due to adverse effects such as GI disorders (dyspepsia, diarrhoea, nausea and vomiting or abdominal pain), increased level of liver enzymes, alopecia, skin rashes, infections and hypertension.
