Kevzara (sarilumab)

General Description:
Kevzara (sarilumab) is a human monoclonal antibody used for the treatment of moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in adult patients who have had an inadequate response or intolerance to one or more disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs).

Sarilumab works by blocking the interleukin-6 (IL-6) receptor, a key driver of inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis. By inhibiting IL-6 signaling, Kevzara helps reduce joint pain, swelling, and long-term joint damage, improving physical function and quality of life for patients.
