Definition from
National Center for Biotechnology Info.:
Disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) are a class of drugs indicated for the treatment of inflammatory arthritides including rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), and ankylosing spondylitis (AS). They can also be used to in the treatment of other disorders including connective tissue disease such as systemic sclerosis (SSc), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and Sjogren syndrome (SS), as well as in treatment of inflammatory myositis, vasculitis, uveitis, inflammatory bowel disease, and some types of cancers.
Example sentences:
Hydroxychloroquine has been available since 1955 as an antimalarial drug. I have at least 6 patients at the pharmacy who have used hydroxychloroquine to manage their rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and Crohn disease. If you were sitting in my pharmacology class, I’d tell you that it is an antimalarial used as a disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (DMARD). I would tell you it is a cheap drug with good efficacy for some and also that it is 1 of 2 DMARDs that are safe to use in patients with liver failure. You would also learn that it may cause deposition of the drug in the melanin layer of the cones in the retina, underscoring the need for annual eye exams. (MJH Life Sciences)

The analysis of performance measures for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) care have allowed to identify gaps in care that include suboptimal use of disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs), according to a study published in Arthritis Care & Research. (Rheumatology Advisor)

sjukdomsmodifierande antireumatiska läkemedel (DMARD)
Definition from
own experience or research:
Sjukdomsmodifierande antireumatiska läkemedel är en grupp läkemedel mot reumatiska sjukdomar, som har det gemensamt att de påverkar själva sjukdomsmekanismen vid inflammatoriska reumatiska sjukdomar i stället för att bara verka smärtstillande eller brett inflammationshämmande. Gruppen är för övrigt ganska disparat, och många av läkemedlen har ursprungligen tagits fram för att behandla andra sjukdomstillstånd.
Example sentences:
De läkemedel som används vid behandling av reumatoid artrit är i första hand sjukdomsmodifierande antireumatiska läkemedel (DMARD) i kombination med kortison samt NSAID, och biologiska läkemedel i form av till exempel TNF-alfablockerare. (Läkartidningen)
TNF-blockerande läkemedel har visats vara mycket effektiva för att minska symtom och bromsa leddestruktion (1-3). Effekten på leddestruktion har visats vara bättre än traditionella sjukdomsmodifierande läkemedel, t ex metotrexat(2). (Internetmedicin)
