Kevzara Treatment
Kevzara (sarilumab) is a monoclonal antibody used to treat moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in adults who haven’t responded well to other therapies. It works by blocking the IL-6 receptor, reducing inflammation and preventing joint damage.
Common symptoms of RA include joint pain and swelling, morning stiffness, fatigue, fever, and reduced joint mobility.
Rheumatoid arthritis is caused by an overactive immune system, often triggered by genetic predisposition, hormonal changes, and environmental factors (e.g., smoking).
Diagnosis involves blood tests (e.g., rheumatoid factor, anti-CCP antibodies), imaging studies (e.g., X-rays, MRI), and a physical joint examination.
Kevzara is administered via subcutaneous injection every two weeks, often combined with methotrexate or other DMARDs (disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs).
Common prescriptions include Kevzara, methotrexate, NSAIDs, and corticosteroids (e.g., prednisone).
Supportive care includes a balanced diet, light exercise, stress management techniques (e.g., meditation), adequate hydration, and proper rest.
Long-term care includes regular blood tests, joint health monitoring, adherence to medication schedules, and infection prevention.
While RA cannot be prevented, avoiding smoking, managing stress, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle can help reduce disease severity.
