Understanding Second line treatments and side effects

Understanding Second-Line Treatments and Side Effects

Second-line treatments refer to options beyond steroids and methotrexate. They are designed to manage JM while reducing reliance on those medications. We understand that adding new treatments to your child’s regimen can be intimidating. However, rest assured that your doctor has carefully considered the benefits and risks of each option to design the best treatment plan for your family.

Traveling with JM

Planning a trip or vacation can be challenging, especially when you have a child with juvenile myositis. With spring break and summer break just around the corner, the pressure might be even greater. However, at Cure JM, we want to help ensure that you and your child can enjoy all the delights of a vacation with minimal stress.
