  • Title: [The therapy of reactive arthritis and of Reiter's syndrome].
    Author: Fuchs W.
    Journal: Ther Umsch; 1989 Apr; 46(4):250-3. PubMed ID: 2718146.
    Abstract:
    The treatment of reactive arthritis and Reiter's syndrome depends on the joints affected, on extra-articular symptoms, and the infection responsible for the disease. Purely symptomatic measures are inadequate in the treatment of therapy-resistant or chronic arthritis. The choice of a suitable "remission-inducing agent" is also frequently determined by the involvement of the skin, intestines or eyes which may dominate. Antibiotics are necessary if the infectious process does not clear up completely. The survey systematically discusses the different methods of treatment and presents them in tabular form.
