Medical - Medical: Health Care / inflammatory bowel disease
English term or phrase: terapia anti-TNF-alfa O tratamiento anti-TNF-alfa
Can you tell me which translation is more accurate for the term anti-TNFα therapy?

Also, is it better to keep the α symbol in the Spanish translation or should it be translated as -alfa?

Thanks

Spanish translation:tratamiento con [fármacos] anti-TNFα
Explanation:
Es bastante más habitual decir "tratamiento", aunque tampoco sería incorrecto usar "terapia". Eso sí, me parece indispensable la preposición "con".
