Introduction to Mepoli-zumab 100mg Injection

Mepoli-zumab 100mg injection contains the active compound Mepoli-zumab. It falls under the category of monoclonal antibodies. This drug treats specific respiratory conditions, specifically severe eosinophilic asthma and eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA), also known as Churg-Strauss syndrome. Severe eosinophilic asthma is characterized by elevated eosinophils (type of white blood cell). Despite regular treatment, it leads to recurring asthma attacks. EGPA, on the other hand, is a rare autoimmune disease that causes inflammation of blood vessels and infiltration of eosinophils into different organs. This condition results in respiratory symptoms, systemic manifestations, and potential organ damage.
