Allergic to Sulfasalazine
Recently I have been diagnosed with the impression of sacroilitis in my mri report . My rheumatologist prescribed me saaz 500 thrice a day with etoshine 60 once a day( for two) weeks however after taking medicine I got allergic reactions with sulfasalazine despite the fact my stiffness and pain was better when I was on saaz. Now what medications should I switch to my rheumatologist have said now we can only rely on NSAIDs and if possible on biologics. But I don't want to switch to biologics so early.

It would be the best for you to treat this problem as best as possible early.
Delaying biologics for this condition doesn't make much sense
SAAZ isn't anyways the best medicine for sacroiliac involvement
Either biologics or a group of Medicine called Jakinhibitors should be used
