Several treatment modalities with different mechanisms of action have been evaluated for the treatment of BD. In this review, our goal is to review updated therapeutic options for BD in the light of recently published The European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) recommendations. Recent findings Behcets disease can be difficult to treat with conventional treatment requiring escalation of therapy. In recent years, treatment of BD has become more effective since the understanding of the pathogenesis led to the use of a wide spectrum of therapeutic agents. Data in biologics have substantially increased in BD with different organ involvements in the last decades and providing promising results, although randomized controlled trials are lacking. Summary Behcets disease can affect multi-organ system therefore treatment should be determined based on the clinical presentation and organ involvement. Since there is a lack of randomized controlled trials, treatment options are usually based on expert consensus, case reports/series, and retrospective/prospective studies. As the development of biologic agents continues, it seems likely that understanding of their efficacy and safety will improve which may lead to a change in the management strategy and clinical outcomes of BD.
