Are there tablets available to treat rheumatoid arthritis attacks?
Asked by Female, 45 · 3 months ago
Yes, rheumatoid arthritis attacks can be managed with oral medications. Short-term treatments include nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (such as ibuprofen or naproxen) or corticosteroids (such as prednisone or methylprednisolone) to reduce pain and swelling. Long-term management often involves disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (such as methotrexate or sulfasalazine) to prevent future flare-ups. It is important to consult a rheumatologist to determine the most appropriate treatment plan.

Disease-Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drugs (DMARDs)
