Hi, Remicade is drug which is very specific and it waited for a long period of time to be approved by commissions for public use. Remicade has great advantages in disorders which it cures like Chrons disease and ankilosing spondylitis. During its experimental phase there were noticed cases of tumors but not in the number which should forbidden use of this medication.
