What biologics are
Biologics are prescription therapies designed to target specific immune signals involved in inflammation. They are typically considered when symptoms remain uncontrolled despite optimized standard therapy.
Who may be a candidate
- Asthma that remains difficult to control despite appropriate inhaled therapies
- Frequent exacerbations or steroid bursts
- Evidence of specific inflammatory patterns based on history and testing
