I know we usually don?t pay attention to commercials, but notice if the drugs they are peddling end in ?mab? (generic names).

The one I take is called Dupixent or Dupilumab

I have also seen Humira or Adalimumab, Raptiva or Efalizumab, and Xolair or Omalizumab.

These drugs are monoclonal antibodies. The science is complicated, and I?m not even going to attempt to summarize the action here.

Some were used for active covid infections, others for various autoimmune disorders including Rheumatoid Arthritis, and for covid vaccine related autoimmune adverse reactions like I have.

My problem is better thankfully, but I have to take a painful shot in my abdomen twice a month. It?s hella expensive, but I don?t pay for it somehow after enrolling online. Not sure who pays for it :shrug:

Anyway, look for these commercials/ads, and somebody smarter than me figure out how we can make some money in the market from them. Their need is skyrocketing. Some stock has to be going up. Also, who is paying for my shots? Who is smart enough to figure that out? Thanks!
