4antirheumatic, anticytokine; chimeric monoclonal ab; binds/neut soluble & transmem forms of tnfa -> decr stim of il1,6, decr wbc migration into synovial fluid; synergism when given with mtx; ade: ha, inf rxn, rash, malignancy; ci: infection/sepsis, murine hypersensitivity, chf2 sets
5treats rheumatoid arthritis1 set
6anti-tnf antibody, use for ra but watch out for latent tb!1 set

8tnf-a, ra and chrons1 set
9ibd, immunosupress; monoclonal ab against tnfa;1 set
10for crohn's disease1 set
11binds with high affinity to soluble and transmembrane forms of tnf-a, inhibit function1 set
12immuno supressantmonoclonal antibody against tnf-alphasingle i.v. effective at inducing remission in crohn'sside effects: nausea, serum sickness like reactions, infections, unclear1 set
13crhon's disease, ulcerative colitis, ra, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis1 set
14remicade- ( biological response modifier) arthritic psoriasis1 set
15igg1 monoclonal antibody; binds to soluble and bound tnf-alpha1 set
16monoclonal antibody, binds to cytokine tumour necrosis factor alpha (tnf-a). tnf-a levels elevated in many inflammatory disorders eg arthritis. infliximab binds and neutralises tnf-a lowering its conc. chimeric antibody (contains protein sequences from both human and mouse antibodies)- recombining mouse dna sequences that code for variable regions of the antibody with human dna sequences that code for constant regions1 set
17monoclonal antibody against tnfa (immunosuppressant). generally well tolerated.1 set
18gi: monoclonal antibody to tnf can also be used in these inflammatory bowel disorders; also sued in rheumatoid arthritis1 set
19ab binds to tnfa and prevents the cytokine from binding its receptor. immunosuppressant. may also be used in crohn's disease.1 set
20crohn's dz & fistulas- antibody against tnf alpha, se: allergies1 set
21binds tnf-a preventing it from binding its receptor1 set
22remicade.serious infections including sepsis and disseminated tuberculosis1 set
23to treat autoimmune disorders, blocks the action of tnfα by binding to it and preventing it from signaling the receptors for tnfα on the surface of cells, treatment of psoriasis,crohn's disease, ankylosing spondylitis, psoriatic arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and ulcerative colitis1 set
24crohn's dz, ra, ankolysing spondylitis. tnfalpha antibody1 set

37dmards: chimeric monoclonal anti tnfalpha natibody, binds to human tnfa, be careful human antichimeric antibodies (haca)1 set
