IBDetermined
Created to discuss living with Crohn's disease and made for adults, kids, teens, and families to encourage them to find ways to overcome obstacles, small and large. We will invite guests from multiple perspectives to give us insight on how they have handled challenges and what they did to get through them. Some episodes will focus on open and honest discussions about Crohn's disease from a caregiver and patient perspective. We will talk to others with IBD, chronic illnesses, and life changing situations people have learned to navigate. Hosted by a mom and son duo who had their lives flipped upside down with a severe Crohn's disease diagnosis. They are living their best lives and helping others survive and thrive by creating awareness and finding empowerment.

S3 Episode 4 - All about biosimilars and how they are used in place of biologics to treat IBD.
Welcome to S3 episode 4! We wanted to focus on biosimilars today because we know they are becoming more popular with insurance. We will help you better understand what they are, how they differ from biologics, how they are used in place of IBD biologics and how patents work with biologics. We are family friendly and want our audience to be involved! Listen together, separately, but ultimately we hope we bring some attention to some well deserved topics on chronic illness.
