[Comparative effectiveness of chrysanol and auranofin in rheumatoid arthritis]
Abstract
A randomized study of 46 patients with classic and definite rheumatoid arthritis on chrysotherapy (25 patients--auranofin orally and 21--allochrysine intramuscularly) showed a therapeutic effect of both drugs. Allochrysine turned out more effective, it was not abandoned in any patients as a result of its inefficacy. However as compared to allochrysine auranofin was slightly better tolerated.
