"
the biologic infliximimab"
Infliximab is a humanised monoclonal antibody which blocks the action of TNF, which is a pro-inflammatory cytokine. It has been used in treatment of a number of conditions (both autoimmune and otherwise) with an inflammatory component.
I would be cautious about it (or other biologics which block the action of TNF) in the context of peripheral neuropathy because "
Peripheral neuropathy was the most common neurological [adverse effect with these biologics...]".
