Clinical Treatment of Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA)

Therapy for RA has improved greatly in the past 30 years. Current treatments give most patients good or excellent relief of symptoms and let them keep functioning at, or near, normal levels. With the right medications, many patients can achieve “remission” — that is, have no signs of active disease. There is no cure for RA. The goal of treatment is to lessen your symptoms and poor function. Doctors do this by starting proper medical therapy as soon as possible, before your joints have lasting damage. No single treatment works for all patients. Many people with RA must change their treatment at least once during their lifetime.

Drugs and medications used to treat RA have some serious side effects. This includes:

  • Ringing in the ears

  • Stomach irritation

  • Thinning of the bones

  • Liver & kidney damage

  • Diabetes

  • Severe lung infections

  • Increase risk of infections
