Pharmacology
Adalimumab-adbm is a TNF-alpha antagonist that binds specifically to TNF-alpha and blocks its interaction with the p55 and p75 cell surface TNF receptors, modulating inflammatory responses and reducing concentrations of acute phase reactants such as CRP and ESR.
VIMOVO is a fixed-dose combination of naproxen, an NSAID that inhibits cyclooxygenase (COX-1 and COX-2) to reduce prostaglandin synthesis with analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and antipyretic effects, and esomeprazole magnesium, a proton pump inhibitor that suppresses gastric acid secretion by inhibiting the H+/K+-ATPase in the gastric parietal cell to reduce naproxen-associated gastric ulcer risk.
