I have been suffering from arthritis for so long I cannot even remember how it was like when I could use my hands normally. Anyway, I have used Voltaren lately and it really helps, I am just afraid of the side effects, I have been using it for long period, and I am waiting for downsides to begin any day now. Is using trexall for arthritis possible? I did not hear about this drug before, but my friend has mentioned it.

Well, Trexall is a type of drug used to fight with cancer. I know that it can be used for controlling complications with psoriasis and rheumatoid arthritis (severe pain, for example). It is an antimetabolite that stops activating of certain enzyme responsible for synthesis of DNA. This helps with slowing the progression of cancer cells. As for rheumatoid arthritis, it is still not discovered how is that it helps people with that illness, but it does and that should be enough, right?
