A new study looks at the effectiveness of the rheumatoid arthritis drug methotrexate in patients suffering from psoriatic arthritis. While the results were slightly mixed this drug did not have any effect on synovitis, or the painful swelling of the joints associated with this disease. As usual however always talk to your doctor before stopping or starting any medication.
I’m not exactly sure what psoriatic arthritis is? Can you post some info on this. Is it the same condition basically as psoriasis, which i know can be very uncomfortable.
No, I do not believe it is the same as traditional psoriasis.
