Description
Etanercept injection, a pharmaceutical compound, is utilized for treating various autoimmune conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, juvenile idiopathic arthritis, and psoriatic arthritis. Its mechanism involves disrupting tumor necrosis factor (TNF), a fundamental element in autoimmune disorders often recognized as the “master regulator” of immune responses. Etacept injection works by impeding TNF-alpha, effectively blocking the progression of autoimmune diseases.
This medication is applied in managing a spectrum of autoimmune disorders, including:
- Juvenile rheumatoid arthritis
- Moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis
- Psoriatic arthritis
- Moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis
- Ankylosing Spondylitis
