Psoriatic Arthritis Treatment Options at Arthritis, Rheumatic & Bone Disease Associates

Psoriatic arthritis is a chronic condition that requires long-term monitoring and ongoing treatment adjustment. Our rheumatologists build each treatment plan around your specific diagnosis, disease severity, lifestyle, and medical history. Treatment typically progresses from less intensive to more targeted therapies as needed.

NSAIDs and Corticosteroids

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are commonly used to manage pain and reduce inflammation, particularly in milder cases. Corticosteroids such as prednisone can be taken orally or administered by injection to control inflammation and manage flare-ups, though they don’t prevent joint damage over time.

Conventional DMARDs

Conventional disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (cDMARDs) such as methotrexate reduce inflammation over time. They may take several weeks to reach full effectiveness and are typically used when NSAIDs alone are insufficient.

Biologic Therapies and In-Office Infusions at Arthritis, Rheumatic & Bone Disease Associates

Biologic DMARDs (bDMARDs) target specific pathways of the immune system that drive inflammation and represent a major advance in psoriatic arthritis treatment. TNF inhibitors include adalimumab (HUMIRA), etanercept (ENBREL), golimumab (SIMPONI ARIA), and infliximab (REMICADE). IL-17 and IL-23 inhibitors such as secukinumab (COSENTYX) and ustekinumab (STELARA) address inflammation at the cellular level.

Many biologic therapies are delivered by infusion. Through our IDYLLIC Infusion Treatment Centers, located within all of our offices, patients can access these advanced treatments without a hospital stay. 

JAK Inhibitors and PDE4 Inhibitors

For patients who prefer or require oral options, JAK inhibitors, including tofacitinib (XELJANZ) and upadacitinib (RINVOQ), can reduce inflammation without an infusion. OTEZLA (apremilast), a PDE4 inhibitor, is also an alternative for patients with milder forms of psoriatic arthritis.

Questions About Your Rheumatology Care

What is rheumatology?
Rheumatology is the branch of medicine focused on diagnosing and treating diseases of the joints, bones, muscles, and immune system. Rheumatologists manage conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, osteoporosis, gout, and more than 100 other autoimmune and inflammatory disorders.
How is a rheumatologist different from a general practitioner?
After internal medicine residency, rheumatologists complete two to three additional years of fellowship training in diseases of the joints and immune system. Every physician at Arthritis, Rheumatic & Bone Disease Associates completed this training. A general practitioner does not have this specialized background.
What should I bring to my first appointment?
Bring any prior lab results, imaging studies, or records from your primary care physician or previous specialists. A list of current medications is also helpful. Your physician will review everything before the examination and use it to inform your diagnostic workup.
How does in-office infusion therapy work?
Biologic medications for conditions like rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis are sometimes administered intravenously rather than by pill or injection. Our IDYLLIC Infusion Treatment Centers provide this treatment inside our offices with a medical professional supervising every session, at substantially lower cost than hospital-based infusion.
Is in-office ultrasound the same as radiology imaging?
Diagnostic ultrasound in our offices provides real-time images of joints, tendons, and soft tissue without radiation. Unlike a radiology referral, every scan at Arthritis, Rheumatic & Bone Disease Associates is interpreted by a physician with specific rheumatology training, so findings are evaluated in the context of your condition, not in isolation.
Do you coordinate with my primary care physician?
Yes. We collaborate closely with referring and primary care physicians, sharing records and findings so your care stays consistent across providers. You won't need to repeat your history or serve as the messenger between offices.
