Abstract
RA is a chronic, autoimmune, systemic disease of unknown etiology that can cause joint deformities. In its treatment, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), steroids, non-biological DMARDs and biological DMARDs are used in various combinations according to the degree and progression of the disease. NSAIDs are often used for a long time in combination with proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) because they act quickly and provide symptomatic relief. Microscopic colitis; It is a chronic bowel disease characterized by watery diarrhea. It is thought that the use of NSAII and PPI alone or together increases the risk of microscopic colitis. The primary disease itself and/or infection may also be triggers.
Keywords: Rheumatoid Arthritis; NSAID; PPI; Microscopic Colitis
