NSAIDS And Anti-Rheumatoid Medicine

NSAIDS and anti-rheumatoid medicine are commonly used to treat rheumatoid arthritis and manage pain, inflammation, and swelling associated with it. These drugs do not inhibit the progression of the disease. Some people with Rheumatoid also take other types of medications to prevent further joint damage and reduce joint pain and stiffness. Heart attacks and strokes are associated with all prescription NSAIDs (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) and anti-rheumatoid medicine. Medical studies are underway to help discover whether these increase the risk of heart attacks and strokes. Allergies can be caused by these. Asthma sufferers may be sensitive to some NSAIDs.
