Rheumatoid arthritis.

Rheumatoid arthritis is a disease that affects the joints. It is an autoimmune disease, meaning that the immune system attacks the body's own tissues, causing inflammation and pain.

​

Rheumatoid arthritis is the most common chronic inflammatory joint disease. Approximately 2.8 million adults in the United States have been diagnosed with Rheumatoid arthritis

.

Rheumatoid arthritis occurs when many people are still active, working and raising families.

​

Although the exact cause of Rheumatoid arthritis is not known, there are certain risk factors:

• Rheumatoid arthritis is more common in women than men

• Rheumatoid arthritis is more likely to occur in people who have a family history of the condition

Medications
 

RAYOS releases prednisone about 4 hours after you take the tablet.

You may already be familiar with prednisone. It is recognized as a medication that reduces the pain and inflammation of conditions like rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR).

​

RAYOS works like traditional prednisone but is different because it is a delayed-release form.

Diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and PMR are most active in the early morning hours, which can result in morning symptoms.
