Perianal fistulizing Crohn's disease increases infliximab clearance and causes low infliximab exposure (ATLANTIC).

If you have Crohn’s disease with perianal fistulas and are treated with infliximab, this study suggests the drug is cleared faster and trough levels are often lower after standard dosing — which may mean you need higher...
