Do you know good treatments for ankylosing spondylitis?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes: NSAIDs such as Celebrex, (celecoxib) indomethacin or diclofenac may be sufficient for mild cases. Sulfasalazine can help if NSAIDs do not. The most effective treatments are the biologic agents such as Remicade, Enbrel or Humira. See a rheumatologist.
