Diphosphonates reduce the rate of bone turnover. They have additional pharmacological properties improving adjuvant arthritis in rats and lowering ESR in this condition. We have evaluated etidronate disodium, a diphosphonate commonly prescribed in the United Kingdom for Paget's disease in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Apart from an early improvement in articular index, perhaps reflecting anti-inflammatory activity, no significant change occurred in clinical variables or in laboratory indices of 'secondline' action at a dose of 5 mg/kg/day.
