can antibiotics control ra
Minocycline (Minocin) Minocycline (minocin) is an anti-inflammatory antibiotic sometimes used to mild treat rheumatoid arthritis (RA). It belongs to the group of antibiotics, called tetracycline, which are typically used to treat infections. Although RA is not thought to be caused by an infection, minocycline may improve the signs and symptoms of this disease. Because it has been studied less and may be less effective than other options, it is not as commonly prescribed in RA.
