Abstract

The definition of rheumatoid arthritis was introduced,the potential cause of its refractoricity was analyzed,and its medication strategy was elaborated,including increasing the dose of disease modifying antirheumatic drugs(DMARD),conbination therapy with multipul DMARD,such as methotrexate,sulfasalazine,hydroxychloraquine,adding cortex hormone,using new immune inhibitor-leflunomide,and biological agents such as TNF blocking agents.
