In the case of Infliximab, this means: Treats an inflammatory or autoimmune disease. It is generally taken over the long term, within regular monitoring, and is not stopped on your own initiative.

- Flixabi

- Remsima
- Zessly
Original brand-name products and generics deliver the same active substance; the choice between them is made with your doctor or pharmacist.
Do you need a supplement? No.
For Infliximab, we offer no supplement. No nutritional supplementation is seriously justified as an addition to this treatment, and we would rather write that than invent a need. Our range is limited to five classes of everyday medicines for which a targeted intake makes sense; outside of those, we do not sell for the sake of selling, and that is what gives weight to our five products.
