Triest
Triest is a combination of three estrogens: estriol, estradiol and estrone. It is most commonly found in a ratio of 80:10:10, estriol, estradiol, and estrone. This combination is very popular and contains all of the three major circulating estrogens. It may be slightly weaker in its effect when compared to biest. However, this may be compensated for by increasing the strength or by slightly changing the ratios.

In February 2007, the FDA approved adalimumab (Humira) for treatment of adult patients with moderate-to-severe Crohns disease. Adalimumab and infliximab (Remicade) are now the two "biologic" drugs approved for Crohns disease. Infliximab is approved for treating both adults and children.

Tessier Surgical Word Book, Third Edition which is the newest edition. Methinks your QA person is wrong (and needs to be brought down a peg or two ). I think some of this QA people get a wee big headed and think they are always right. Doesn't sound like he's/she's bothering to reference it because if she did, she wouldn't be able to find it.
Go get 'em!
