Anti-TNF Therapy
Anti-TNF therapy is a type of treatment that targets and blocks a protein called tumor necrosis factor (TNF), which plays a key role in inflammation. This therapy is commonly used to manage autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn's disease, and psoriasis. By inhibiting TNF, the therapy helps reduce inflammation and alleviate symptoms.
Patients receiving anti-TNF therapy may experience improved quality of life and reduced disease activity. However, it is important to monitor for potential side effects, including increased risk of infections. Regular check-ups with a healthcare provider are essential to ensure the treatment's effectiveness and safety.
