A member asked:

Infliximab steroid side effects?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

None: Infliximab or Remicade (infliximab) is not a steroid so you should not get steroid side effects directly from that medication. Remicade (infliximab) has its own potentially risks so make sure you are educated in its use and side effect potential.
