Canadian Rheumatology Association Living Guidelines for Rheumatoid Arthritis: Update #2

We have updated the Canadian Rheumatology Association (CRA) guidelines for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with 3 recommendations for the use of glucocorticoids (GCs). The recommendations address the use of short-term GCs for RA flares or as bridging therapy when disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) are initiated or changed, and the use of longterm GCs as adjuncts to DMARDs.
