Overview
Essential measures for the secondary prevention of psoriatic arthritis include calcium and vitamin D supplementation to prevent drug associated osteoporosis. To decrease the risk of cardiovascular complications and to prevent recurrent episodes effective measures include exercise, smoking cessation, and dietary control.
Secondary prevention
- The following measures may be helpful for the secondary prevention of psoriatic arthritis:
- Protection of bone is essential due to the prolonged use of glucocorticoids and DMARDs to prevent drug induced osteoporosis.
- Supplemental intake of calcium 1000 to 1200 mg/day and vitamin D 600 to 800 IU/day is recommended for patients using prolonged glucocorticoids.[1]
- Patients are monitored regularly for disease activity, drug efficacy, adverse effects and associated comorbid conditions.[2]
- The following measures are helpful to prevent cardiovascular complications associated with psoriatic arthritis.[3]
- Smoking cessation
- Dietary control to prevent hyperlipidemia, hypertension, and diabetes mellitus.
- Exercise
- Patient education
