Remicade and Its Biosimilars

Remicade is a brand-name medication that contains infliximab. Because Remicade is a brand-name drug, other medications have been developed as biosimilars. According to the FDA, the biosimilars of Remicade include:

  • Avsola
  • Inflectra
  • Ixifi
  • Renflexis

A biosimilar is a medication that is similar to a brand-name drug, but not an exact copy.
