Rheumatologist Questions Juvenile Arthritis

What medications can my daughter take for joint pain?

My daughter has joint pain due to juvenile arthritis and only takes NSAIDs to ease the pain. It barely works for her. Are there other medicines she can take? She's 14 years old.

We use many other meds including gold, methotrexate, and biologics
Hi!

Yes, there are other medicines to take. The safest route is to eat a good diet and exercise daily. Cilantro helps JAD.
