How can AVISE MTX & AVISE HCQ help me manage my condition?

Studies show that patients with optimal levels of medications or medication metabolites, for example MTX metabolites, can have a better response to their treatment than patients below optimal levels. (Dervieux et al. Arthritis Rheum. 2006)

Monitoring your medication levels can help you and your doctor:

  • Take better control of your condition and personalize your treatment.
  • Assess if your medications are optimized for you.
  • Assess if you are a candidate for changes to your therapy.

Why would my medication levels not be optimal?

There could be several factors that could make medication levels fluctuate including:

  • Your individual metabolism
  • Medication absorption
  • Your personal adherence to medications
