Rinvoq Treatment
Rinvoq (upadacitinib) is an oral Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor used to treat moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and atopic dermatitis. It works by blocking specific JAK enzymes, reducing inflammation and halting disease progression.
Common symptoms include joint pain and swelling, morning stiffness, fatigue, skin rashes (in atopic dermatitis), and reduced mobility in affected joints.
These conditions are caused by immune system overactivity, often triggered by genetic predisposition, hormonal imbalances, and environmental factors like infections or smoking.
Diagnosis involves blood tests (e.g., rheumatoid factor, anti-CCP antibodies), imaging tests (e.g., X-rays, MRI), and physical examination to assess joint or skin involvement.
Rinvoq is taken orally once daily, often in combination with methotrexate or other DMARDs for enhanced effectiveness.
Common prescriptions include Rinvoq, methotrexate, NSAIDs, and corticosteroids (e.g., prednisone).
Supportive care includes a balanced diet, gentle exercise, stress management techniques (e.g., meditation, deep breathing), hydration, and adequate rest.
Long-term care includes routine blood tests, regular imaging scans, monitoring for side effects, and adherence to treatment plans.
While not preventable, early diagnosis, quitting smoking, stress management, and a healthy lifestyle can help reduce disease severity.
