Since this is one that my dermatologist is recommending me to try, I can say it's available in the US  Smile

Kat, this is an IL-23 inhibitor, just like Stelara is.
For most people this works best for Psoriasis, not for Psoriatic Arthritis . There is a limited group of people with Psoriatic Arthritis who react positive on IL-23 inhibitors.
In that sense it is identical to ILUMETRI®.

Most Psoriatic Arthritis patient react well on a IL-17 or IL-17A inhibitor like Cosentyx.

Still as all people are different .... it may work for you.
