Certain medications for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) can increase the risk of infections, which can be particularly concerning for those with conditions affecting the colon. Here are some key points from the knowledge base:

- NSAIDs (Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs): Medications like ibuprofen (Advil) and naproxen (Aleve) can worsen symptoms of conditions like ulcerative colitis and should be avoided.
- Disease-Modifying Antirheumatic Drugs (DMARDs): These can increase the risk of infections. It's important to discuss with your doctor about the infection risks and any precautions you can take.

Always consult with your healthcare provider for personalized advice.
