What Is Biologic Therapy?
Biologic therapy is a newer type of treatment designed to target specific pathways in the immune system that contribute to inflammation.
These medications are typically given as injections and are used for patients whose symptoms are not well controlled with standard treatments.
Conditions Treated with Biologics
Biologic therapy may be recommended for:
-
Moderate to severe asthma
-
Chronic hives (urticaria)
-
Eczema (atopic dermatitis)
-
Other selected allergic or inflammatory conditions
Who May Be a Candidate
Biologic therapy may be considered if:
-
Symptoms remain uncontrolled despite standard treatment
-
You require frequent medications or steroids
-
Your condition significantly impacts daily life
-
Other therapies have not been effective
How Treatment Works
Biologics target specific components of the immune response, helping to:
-
Reduce inflammation
-
Decrease symptom severity
-
Lower frequency of flare-ups
-
Improve overall control
Treatment is individualized and monitored closely.
