I think that maybe Fred may have some experience in this matter.
I can imagine that it needs some time to completely start working. Did the rheum say something about that?
Cosentyx is mainly an IL-17 suppressor as far as I know, but dont know how fast it will start working.
Yes it will take time, most bio's usually go 12 weeks before it's considered worth continuing or not.
Yes you are correct a bio should do the job it's designed for as in control the psoriasis and/or psoriatic arthritis, but some work better than others for different people. Also some people start really well on one and then it just gives up working, if you are not getting good results at week 12 I would consider trying another one.
