Rheumatoid Arthritis in Women: Current Approach and Overview of Recent Guidelines
The Female Patient, 08/28/09
Tayar JH et al. – Like most autoimmune diseases, RA has an increased prevalence among women. Pregnant women and their fetuses may be at risk of harm from certain DMARDs; with insufficient safety data available for the newer DMARDs in pregnancy, their use should be individually tailored for each patient. Counseling the pregnant patient about the possible impact of RA and its therapy is an essential part of comprehensive management. Postmenopausally, women with RA are at higher risk for CVD and osteoporosis, necessitating close monitoring, preventive measures, and early treatment.
