Pharmacology
TNF-alpha antagonist; infliximab is a chimeric IgG1 monoclonal antibody that neutralizes the biological activity of TNF-alpha by binding with high affinity to both soluble and transmembrane forms of TNF-alpha and inhibiting its binding to receptors, thereby reducing inflammation in RA, CD, UC, AS, PsA, and Ps.
PDE4 inhibitor; roflumilast and its active metabolite (roflumilast N-oxide) inhibit PDE4, a major cyclic AMP-metabolizing enzyme, leading to accumulation of intracellular cyclic AMP.
