@drceowen @TheLancetRheum @RheumNow Efficacy in newly diagnosed & established PMR is not necessarily interchangeable
different treatment paradigm
?different immunologically
Many other diseases have different Rx for induction vs maintenance, early dx vs established.
Having said that: doesn't look great for MTX. https://t.co/89lByaYdYq

What factors are assoc with uptake of newer meds in RA?
➡️Incr use of b/tsDMARDs over 10yrs
➡️Use of newer drugs lower in older ppl, socioeconomic deprived & Asian/Black ppl
Could this indicate disparities in access to meds? How can we best address this?
