Does switching from coated colchicine to compressed colchicine improves treatment response in patients with familial Mediterranean fever?
CONCLUSIONS: Compressed colchicine was shown to be a useful treatment option before initiating biological agents in non-responders to coated colchicine, especially those with side effects.PMID:37927190 | PMC:PMC10668039 | DOI:10.3325/cmj.2023.64.354 (Source: Croatian Medical Journal)

Rev Med Interne. 2023 Oct 28:S0248-8663(23)01203-1. doi: 10.1016/j.revmed.2023.10.441. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTFamilial Mediterranean fever is the most common monogenic auto-inflammatory disease in the world. It mainly affects people originating from the Mediterranean region. The mutated gene is MEFV, which codes for pyrin. Transmission is autosomal recessive. Patients present with recurrent attacks of fever since childhood associated with abdominal and/or thoracic pain lasting an average of 2-3days and a biological inflammatory syndrome. Other symptoms include arthralgia or arthritis in large joints such as the knee...
