Infliximab is useful in which of the following immune diseases?
-
Rheumatoid arthritis
-
Lung inflammation
-
Peptic ulcer
-
Kidney failure
Correct Answer
A. Rheumatoid arthritisExplanation
Infliximab is a medication that is commonly used to treat immune diseases, specifically rheumatoid arthritis. Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disorder where the immune system mistakenly attacks the joints, causing inflammation, pain, and swelling. Infliximab works by targeting and neutralizing a specific protein in the body that is responsible for promoting inflammation. By blocking this protein, infliximab helps to reduce the symptoms and progression of rheumatoid arthritis. Therefore, infliximab is not useful in lung inflammation, peptic ulcer, or kidney failure, but it is specifically indicated for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.Rate this question:

Ceftriaxone is commonly used to treat serious infections such as pneumonia, meningitis, and urinary tract infections.

Beta-lactam antibiotics are a class of antibiotics that are effective against a wide range of bacteria by inhibiting the synthesis of bacterial cell walls. Ibuprofen, on the other hand, is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that is commonly used for pain relief and reducing inflammation.Rate this question:

Which of theservice is not a calcium channel blocker?
-
Procadia

Capoten is not a calcium channel blocker. It is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor that is used to treat high blood pressure and heart failure. Calcium channel blockers, on the other hand, work by blocking the entry of calcium into the cells of the heart and blood vessels, resulting in relaxation of the blood vessels and reduced workload on the heart. Examples of calcium channel blockers include Procadia, Calan, and Cadizen.Rate this question:
