Pharmacology
TNF-alpha blocker; adalimumab-bwwd 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.
Triamcinolone acetonide is a synthetic glucocorticoid with immunosuppressive and anti-inflammatory activity; its primary mechanism of action is as a corticosteroid hormone receptor agonist.
