WHAT DUPIXENT IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
WHAT DUPIXENT IS
Dupixent contains the active substance dupilumab.
Dupilumab is a monoclonal antibody (a type of specialised protein)
that blocks the action of proteins
called interleukins (IL)-4 and IL-13. Both play a major role in
causing the signs and symptoms of
atopic dermatitis, asthma, chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis
(CRSwNP), prurigo nodularis
(PN) and eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE).
WHAT DUPIXENT IS USED FOR
Dupixent is used to treat adults and adolescents 12 years and older
with moderate-to-severe atopic
dermatitis, also known as atopic eczema. Dupixent is also used to
treat children 6 months to 11 years
old with severe atopic dermatitis. Dupixent may be used with eczema
medicines that you apply to the
skin or it may be used on its own.
Dupixent is also used with other asthma medicines for the maintenance
treatment of severe asthma in
adults, adolescents, and children aged 6 years and older whose asthma
is not controlled with their
current asthma medicines (e.g. corticosteroids).
Dupixent is also used with other medicines for the mai
