Adjunctive Therapies in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune pathology that follows a chronic course characterized by the involvement of the synovial membrane of joints all over the body. Clinically, the disease is characterized by persistent and painful immune-mediated inflammation, which culminates in bone deformations and joint movement limitation. Alternative therapies, such as garlic, ginger, curcumin, and resveratrol, are beneficial given their anti-inflammatory properties. These alternative therapies are a secondary option for treating the clinical manifestations of rheumatoid arthritis, helping to improve the patient’s quality of life further and preventing future complications.
