Renflexis (infliximab-abda) is used to treat certain types of arthritis.
In inflammatory conditions, the immune system becomes excessively active, generating an abundance of TNF-alpha (tumor necrosis factor alpha) protein. This prompts the immune system to target and attack healthy cells. Renflexis hinders this by inhibiting TNF-alpha, a key cytokine in the inflammatory response.
By modulating the hyperactive immune response, Renflexis effectively alleviates symptoms such as joint pain, swelling, and restricted mobility.
