Background Sulfasalazine-induced cytopenia, nephrotoxicity and hepatotoxicity is uncommon during long-term treatment. Some guidelines recommend 3 monthly monitoring blood tests indefinitely during long-term treatment while others recommend stopping m...

Discontinuation of anti-TNF-alpha treatment due to blood test abnormalities and cost-effectiveness of alternate blood monitoring strategies (2023)
Journal Article
Abhishek, A., Stevenson, M. D., Nakafero, G., Grainge, M. J., Evans, I., Alabas, O., …Williams, H. C. (in press). Discontinuation of anti-TNF-alpha treatment due to blood test abnormalities and cost-effectiveness of alternate blood monitoring strategies. British Journal of Dermatology, Article ljad430. https://doi.org/10.1093/bjd/ljad430

Background: There is no evidence base supporting the use of six-monthly monitoring blood tests for the early detection of liver, blood, and renal toxicity during established anti-TNF-alpha treatment. Objectives: To evaluate the incidence... Read More about Discontinuation of anti-TNF-alpha treatment due to blood test abnormalities and cost-effectiveness of alternate blood monitoring strategies.
