Clear Up Confusion About Biosimilars

You'll hear more about "biosimilars"...Fulphila, Inflectra, Nivestym, Renflexis, Retacrit, Zarxio, etc.

As their name suggests, biosimilars are BIOlogics that are highly SIMILAR to the original, or "reference," biologic.

It's not possible to create an exact copy of the original. That's because biologics are made from living organisms and contain larger, more complex molecules than most traditional drugs.
