治疗类风湿关节炎的二线药物,包括金制剂、青霉胺、抗疟药、柳氮磺胺吡啶、皮质激素和免疫抑制剂,它们可延缓病情进展。在一线药物不能控制症状或患者不能耐受其副作用时,有必要对者年活动性类风湿关节炎患者使用二线药物,以选取那些疗效迅速出现的药物为佳。现提倡早期应用二线药物。 (林栋摘) Second-line drugs for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis include gold preparations, penicillamine, antimalarials, sulfasalazine, corticosteroids and immunosuppressive agents that slow the progression of the disease. When first-line drugs do not control symptoms or patients can not tolerate their side effects, it is desirable to use second-line drugs in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis in order to select those drugs with rapid onset of efficacy. Is to promote early application of second-line drugs. (Lin Dong picks)
