What is Clinical Case 1 about?
A 55 year old woman with rheumatoid arthritis has not benefited from NSAIDs. She has swollen and tender joints and imaging shows erosive changes. Methotrexate is recommended as the first choice treatment due to its efficacy and safety profile. Before starting methotrexate, a chest X-ray and liver function tests should be performed. After one month of treatment with unpleasant side effects, switching to parenteral methotrexate and performing joint injections is the correct response.
