Biosimilars for inflammatory arthritis have been a revolution in improving quality of life and prolonging healthy life by years. If you have doubts or just want to know more you may be interested.
Want to understand the impact of #biosimilars on people living with #arthritis? We’ve got research for that! Learn more: ow.ly/PQ5Q50POke1 #ArthritisResearch @DianeLacaille @nickelbhatt
Every new batch of an originator biologic is a biosimilar of itself. A biosimilar by a different company is approved only after extensive evaluation by numerous national health agencies around the world. Think of a biosimilar as a biogeneric.
Live in Canada? Have #arthritis? Have questions about biosimilar transition policies? @Arthritis_ARC we know change can be difficult, so we're breaking down the facts on biosimilars in Ep.11 of the Arthritis Research Education Series: ow.ly/N4NH50PIQTX @DianeLacaille
Senator Pat did incredible things for Canada both as a Minister of the Crown and then as a Senator. She also worked to promote awareness of and funding for arthritis, a set of at least 100 medical diseases which did not get the attention she felt they deserved. Bravo bravo Pat

Patient-initiated care for rheumatoid arthritis: a novel idea.
Problem: Rheumatologist follow-up appointments are scheduled at fixed intervals. Makes urgent need care difficult.
Research: We're creating a model of delivering care to accommodate specific needs. #ArthritisResearch @cehbarbe @DianeLacaille
