Arthritis is a condition characterized by inflammation and pain in joints. An arthritis drug, therefore, refers to any medication that is designed to treat or manage the symptoms associated with this medical condition. These drugs can work in various ways such as reducing inflammation, relieving pain, slowing down the progression of the disease, and improving joint function. Examples of arthritis drugs include nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), corticosteroids, disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs), biologics, and pain relievers.
