Our Treatments for Rheumatic Conditions

- Antibody therapies: This treatment uses proteins produced by your immune system in response to an infection (called antibodies) to help your body fight disease.
- Biologics: Biologics are powerful medicines developed from blood, proteins, viruses and living organisms. They can suppress certain immune responses to combat chronic autoimmune diseases.
- Disease-modifying antirheumatic medications (DMARDs): Some drugs can slow the progression of rheumatic diseases such as inflammatory arthritis and help prevent joint damage.
- Steroid injections: We deliver steroids directly to inflamed joints and tissues to reduce pain and swelling, which may help prevent permanent joint damage.
