More Ra Info... | Arthritis Information

No wanting to clog up the board with a lot of posts, I decided to post these articles together

A systematic comparison of combination DMARD therapy and tumour necrosis inhibitor therapy with methotrexate in patients with early rheumatoid arthritis

http://rheumatology.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/content/abstract/kep331

Rapid and sustained improvements in health-related quality of life, fatigue, and other patient-reported outcomes in rheumatoid arthritis patients treated with certolizumab pegol plus methotrexate over 1 year: results from the RAPID 1 randomized controlled trial

Always excellent information, Lynn. Thanks.

The second article has to do with the drug known as Cimzia which has been used for recalcitrant Crohn's Disease and is now being used for RA.

Worth reading.
