A member asked:
Can i take dmards if i am immuno.compromised?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Autoimmune diseases such as sle or RA immunocompromise the person as a consequence of the disease. In these disorders, for example, dmards are very helpful. The answer depends somewhat on the cause of the underlying problem. Discuss this with your rheumatologist.
