Etanercept (Enbrel)

Enbrel (etanercept) is a fully human soluble TNF receptor fusion protein. TNF is a dominant cytokine in the inflammatory process of rheumatoid arthritis. Elevated levels of TNF are also found in the synovium and psoriatic plaques of patients with psoriatic arthritis and in serum and synovial tissue of patients with ankylosing spondylitis. In plaque psoriasis, infiltration by inflammatory cells, including T-cells, leads to increased TNF levels in psoriatic lesions compared with levels in uninvolved skin. Etanercept is a soluble TNF receptor that is a competitive inhibitor of TNF binding to its cell surface receptor, thereby inhibiting biological activity of TNF. This product entry refers to Enbrel, not biosimilars of etanercept

Eucerin Anti Redness Concealing Day Cream Tinted SPF 25

Applied after cleansing, it instantly hydrates, calms irritation and helps cover visible redness. This innovative formula combines two active ingredients: SymSitive and Licorice Extract. Alongside its two active ingredients, the cream also contains green pigments that cover and neutralise reddened skin resulting in an instant even-toned complexion. To minimise the chance of intolerance or skin reactions the formula is pure, while the packaging has been designed to protect it from contamination thanks to a dual valve system.

Eucerin Anti Redness Soothing Care

Consists of two main ingredients: SymSitive and licorice extract. SymSitive acts as a sensitivity regulator directly at the source of the hyper-reactivity. It calms the unpleasant sensation and increases the tolerance of hypersensitive skin. Licorice extract is a natural ingredient derived from glycyrrhiza inflata root extract. It is both an anti-inflammatory and an anti-oxidant, and so reduces redness and soothes irritation.
