Stomach ulcer drug tested to fight arthritis pain

NCT ID NCT05166304

Summary

This study tested whether adding rebamipide, a medication typically used for stomach ulcers, to standard methotrexate treatment could better control rheumatoid arthritis. It involved 60 adults with active arthritis who were already taking standard disease-modifying drugs. Researchers measured changes in joint pain, swelling, and overall disease activity to see if the combination was more effective.
