I am curious as to where I can find a good list of RA drugs and what they do. I am recently diagnosed and would like to inform myself about the drugs available before I go to the RA Dr. I don't want to be surprised at the Dr office.  Also I know some are injectable, I am deathly afraid of needles, but I'll do what I have to do if it makes me feel better. I'd like to know the differences in each one and how they are administered, what they are used for, etc.
Anyone know of somewhere I can find this info?

Looks like Buckeye helped you out.
 
I am afraid of needles too, but after a while of being on something that is repetitive I am starting to get use to being stuck and bloodwork being done. But if I ever got a while without having to deal with a needle I revert back to being scared of them again.
 
Hope to see you around!Here's the ARC list -
