Biopharmaceuticals, also known as biologics or biotech drugs, are therapeutic products derived from biological sources. These include proteins (like antibodies, hormones, and enzymes), nucleic acids (DNA, RNA), or living cells and tissues used for medical treatments. Unlike traditional small-molecule drugs that are chemically synthesized, bio pharmaceuticals are typically produced using living organisms such as bacteria, yeast, or mammalian cells via recombinant DNA technology. The scope of bio pharmaceuticals is broad and growing rapidly, covering a range of therapeutic areas from oncology and autoimmune diseases to rare genetic disorders and infectious diseases. They represent a revolutionary shift in medicine, offering highly targeted, often personalized treatment approaches.
