Salazopyrin (sulfasalazine) may cause headaches as a side effect.
If the pain is bothersome or getting worse, it is worth consulting a doctor – it may be necessary to change the dose or another medication. It is not recommended to discontinue the drug on one's own without prior consultation, especially if it is used to treat chronic diseases such as RA or ulcerative colitis. Any modifications in therapy, including discontinuation of the drug, should be introduced after consultation with the attending physician who is familiar with your health condition in detail.

I also encourage you to report adverse effects of the preparation. Reporting side effects increases control over medicines on the market. We wrote about how and why to report side effects in the article:
