📋Overview
Infliximab is a biologic medication that targets and inhibits tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), a substance involved in inflammation. It is commonly associated with the management of autoimmune conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, ankylosing spondylitis, and psoriasis. By blocking TNF-alpha, infliximab helps reduce inflammation and immune system activity in these disorders. Its use is typically reserved for cases where other treatments have not been effective.
