Finding the right rheumatoid arthritis medication for you, one that has benefits, with the tall pro level of side effects, is a trial and error process. Wouldn’t it be great if we had a tool that can tell us what life on a particular medication would be like? I recently interviewed a rheumatologist who is in the process of developing one such tool:

“Deciding on a new rheumatoid arthritis (RA) medication contains a lot of guesswork. We have more treatment options than ever before, but no effective way of comparing them. How do you decide which medication to take? A new tool called G-PROM holds promise for enabling doctors and their patients to truly compare medication benefits and side effects based on the real-life experience of other people who have taken that drug.”
