Today I had a phone appt. with my doctor. She said she recommends Cosentyx over Talz because Talz has something in it that causes a painful sore at the injection site. They are removing the irritant but not in Canada for a year or so. There was another drug she mentioned but it can cause depression, which I don't need any more of. She said the newer biologics may work better than the older ones.
So I am going to give Consentyx a shot.
Was the other drug you were offered Siliq Kyntheum / Siliq (brodalumab) if so I would avoid that if you can, it lists some nasty side effects
Yes Siliq, and Skyrizzi. My spelling may be off lol. Also an oral one which I didn't consider.
The oral one is Otezla.
But Cosentyx is a good choice. Good luck with it.
