While rheumatoid arthritis currently has no permanent cure, it is highly manageable. With early and proper treatment, most people lead active lives and achieve remission. To manage the condition, doctors primarily prescribe Disease-Modifying Antirheumatic Drugs (DMARDs) such as methotrexate or sulfasalazine to slow disease progression and protect joints. For quick relief from pain and swelling, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like ibuprofen or low-dose corticosteroids are temporarily used. Biologic therapies may also be recommended for advanced cases. Please consult a rheumatologist to create a personalized, safe treatment plan tailored to your needs.
