Pfizer is committed to helping patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) become empowered to play an important role in managing their medical condition with their doctor. What does personal empowerment mean? It is a process intended to help patients work with their doctors to manage their RA and act on medical issues that you—the patient—define as important. Empowerment means becoming a partner with your healthcare professional (HCP) team to participate in shared decision-making on your personal treatment-related issues and options.
The following Pfizer-sponsored materials seek to provide important content for adult patients who have RA.
