Product Introduction
Infliximab 100mg is an anti-TNF biologic used for inflammatory arthritis, plaque psoriasis, Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis.
How to use
The reconstituted medicine is given by intravenous infusion in a monitored setting. Initial induction infusions are followed by maintenance treatment. Infusion reactions are watched for during and after administration.
How it works
Infliximab binds tumour necrosis factor alpha and reduces the inflammatory signalling it drives.
Side effects
Respiratory infections, headache, abdominal discomfort and infusion reactions can occur. Serious infection, tuberculosis reactivation or anaphylaxis requires urgent treatment.
Important information
Tuberculosis and hepatitis B screening precede treatment. Active serious infection, significant heart failure and demyelinating disease affect suitability.
Uses
- Selected rheumatoid, psoriatic and spinal arthritis, plaque psoriasis, Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis.
Benefits
Reducing inflammation can improve symptoms, promote bowel healing or remission and limit disease-related damage in responsive patients.
Is it always used without other medicines?
No. For rheumatoid arthritis it is commonly combined with methotrexate, and regimens differ in bowel and skin disease.
Why can a cough or fever matter before an infusion?
A new infection may need treatment and postponement of the infusion.
Can a long gap affect restarting?
A treatment gap can increase antibody formation and infusion-reaction risk. Restarting needs a coordinated plan.
Can I have a live vaccine while receiving infliximab?
Live vaccines are generally avoided during infliximab treatment because TNF blockade weakens infection control. Complete any needed live vaccination before treatment when possible, and tell the vaccination service that you receive infliximab.
