Hi FRP88
1. I've been on Cosentyx for a year and three months approximately however my rheumatologist prescribed the wrong dosage to begin with (150 mg instead of 300 mg). I 'very been on 300 mg for 7 months now
2. I don't have any psoriasis plaques but that being said, all treatments I've tried worked well for the psoriasis. I have yet to find something that works for the arthritis
3. My rheumatologist put me on azathioprine in August 2018 as he said I had also lupus after landing in the ER.....see my journal for more details on that episode....However, I don't think I have lupus
4. 100 mg af azathioprine per day from August 2018 to November 2018. Then he okayed for me to go on Cosentyx and reduced the azathioprine to 50 mg per day
5. No he did not....I don't think he plans on stopping the azathioprine.
I had a bad cold when loading up un Cosentyx in 2018, another one shortly after the dose was increased. I was losing more hair than usual on 100 mg azathioprine but that stopped when the dose was reduced.
Hope this helps a bit
