Pharmacology
Combination of halobetasol propionate, a synthetic corticosteroid that modulates cellular signaling, immune function, and inflammation, and tazarotene, a retinoid prodrug converted by esterase hydrolysis to tazarotenic acid, which binds RAR-beta and RAR-gamma receptors to modify gene expression; precise mechanisms in plaque psoriasis are unknown.
TNF-alpha antagonist; adalimumab-aqvh is a recombinant human IgG1 monoclonal antibody that binds specifically to TNF-alpha and blocks its interaction with the p55 and p75 cell surface TNF receptors, also lysing surface TNF-expressing cells in vitro in the presence of complement.
