Certolizumab Pegol (Cimzia)

Cimzia (certolizumab pegol) has a high affinity for human TNFα and binds with a dissociation constant (KD) of 90 pM. TNFα is a key pro-inflammatory cytokine with a central role in inflammatory processes. Cimzia selectively neutralises TNFα (IC90 of 4 ng/ml for inhibition of human TNFα in the in vitro L929 murine fibrosarcoma cytotoxicity assay) but does not neutralise lymphotoxin α (TNFβ). Cimzia was shown to neutralise membrane associated and soluble human TNFα in a dose-dependent manner. Incubation of monocytes with Cimzia resulted in a dose-dependent inhibition of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced TNFα and IL1β production in human monocytes. Cimzia does not contain a fragment crystallisable (Fc) region, which is normally present in a complete antibody, and therefore does not fix complement or cause antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity in vitro. It does not induce apoptosis in vitro in human peripheral blood-derived monocytes or lymphocytes, or neutrophil degranulation.

Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser

A mild formulation that gently moisturises and removes unwanted impurities, without stripping the skin’s natural protective oils and emollients, or upsetting the pH balance. Soothing and fragrance free, daily use relieves the dryness often caused by medicated skin products without itching or irritation

Cetaphil Moisturising Lotion

The lotion enhances the skin’s moisture-protection system and helps restore the natural protective barrier. Its unique formula gives rapid, effective hydration and treats the dryness associated with skin conditions and dermatological treatments.
