Abstract

ABSTRACT Some clinical and metabolic effects of 6α-chloro-prednisolone and prednisolone have been compared in 15 patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Most of the results are summarized in Table 1. An equal maintenance in rheumatoid arthritis could be obtained with 15 mg/day of prednisolone and 12 mg/day of 6α-chloro-prednisolone.
