DVT/PE has been the sticking point for baricitinib in RA.
DVT/PE risk in integrated safety analysis >8y: incidence doesn't increase, but also doesn't decrease. No diff with dose either.
Every drug has pros/cons; it's how we manage risk that counts...

Low-dose MTX assoc. with small-mod. elevated risk of transaminitis, infection, anaemia & skin cancer.

#ACR20 year in review @JYazdanyMD CIRT trial showing that MTX pneumonitis occurs but is very (very) rare. @RheumNow @jeffsparks @DanielHSolomon https://t.co/UbD4mhHBzq
