How it works

From the US prescribing label for the same active substance (EYLEA). It describes the substance, not this exact product.

Vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A) and placental growth factor (PlGF) are members of the VEGF family of angiogenic factors that can act as mitogenic, chemotactic, and vascular permeability factors for endothelial cells.

VEGF acts via two receptor tyrosine kinases, VEGFR-1 and VEGFR-2, present on the surface of endothelial cells.

Half-life5–6 days
Mostly cleared after≈ 4 weeksfive half-lives — our arithmetic
