While initial researches documented that Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) patients who took biologic agents had decreased symptoms with those receiving traditional treatment, safety of the drugs remains a concern. The Authors in this paper review the safety of the RA new therapeutic approach utilizing biological agents and compare it with the safety of conventional disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs).

While initial researches documented that Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) patients who took biologic agents had decreased symptoms with those receiving traditional treatment, safety of the drugs remains a concern. The Authors in this paper review the safety of the RA new therapeutic approach utilizing biological agents and compare it with the safety of conventional disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
