    GlossaryBiologics (Biological Agents)

    medications derived from living organisms to treat various diseases

    Biologics, also known as biological drugs or biopharmaceuticals, are a category of medications derived from living organisms, such as cells, tissues, or proteins. Unlike traditional chemical drugs, biologics are typically large, complex molecules that target specific components of the immune system or cellular processes, making them effective for treating conditions like autoimmune diseases, cancers, and certain types of alopecia.
