Abstract
The article offers information on the early treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and corticosteroids. Topics discussed include the disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (DMARD) therapy, criteria for diagnosis, and the three U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved products for RA treatment such as naproxen/esomeprazole, ibuprofen/famotidine, and delayed-release prednisone.
