"I have been taking 9 mg of Ridaura daily ever since Solganol became unavailable. I had a complete remission of my rheumatoid arthritis with Solganol and continue to do so with Ridaura. I will not discontinue using Ridaura unless it causes any side effects that are harmful to my health. My understanding is if one has a remission on gold, do not stop treatment because one will lose that remission even if gold treatment is resumed. I am 64 years old, I started on Solganol in my very early 30s."

"I've had RA since my early 40s, and NSAIDs just stopped working. After several years of progressively stronger NSAIDs, my rheumatologist started my regimen on Ridaura. In my case, it was like a miracle drug. It arrested the disease progression, and after six months, I felt so much better. I am now a 73-year-old male and still taking 3 mg twice a day. It has made my life not only bearable but comfortable."
