I'm a big fan of Stelara especially for psoriasis, but I can understand them wanting you to come off it because of the pregnancy. I'm not a fan of Humira and don't know of many that have done really well on it.
I'm currently on Cosentyx and there are very good reports from our members for that and Taltz. I can't comment on Taltz but I will say that Cosentyx hasn't been as good as Stelara for psoriasis, it has however been great no more than great for psoriatic arthritis and that is the most important to me.
If I was you and you don't have psoriatic arthritis I would try Stelara again. If you have psoriatic arthritis then yes go for Cosentyx.
I don't know much about your healthcare system, but it does seem based on what they want to sell or promote.
At the end of the day it's your body. If Stelara was that good to you then I would go for that again and hold the others in reserve. Just don't go getting pregnant again.
Regards.

LOL. that made me laugh! We are stopping with 2 children! No more pregnancies for me, God willing. I do not have psoriatic arthritis, I suppose I will ask the Doctor about getting back on Stelara and giving that one more shot. (no pun intended). I did LOVE this medicine while I was on it.
