Guest guest Posted August 11, 2012 Report Share Posted August 11, 2012 Hey guys, We found this study which said that 500mg of Clarithromycin twice daily can be effective in treating Stills. I was wondering if any of you have tried it? From the Case Conclusion: Clarithromycin can be a useful drug to treat AOSD because of its anti-inflammatory properties independent from its antibiotic activity. The association of CM with mild-low dose GC and MTX seems to be acceptable; thus permitting reduction of doses and administration of other drugs. Since CM gives a therapeutic advantage with no serious reported side effects and acceptible costs, it may represent a useful and valuable drug to be enclosed in a therapeutic algorithm for AOSD.
