Hi and welcome to the club, unfortunately Psoriasis will keep returning as there is no  magic one drug to fix us all, it is a matter of trial and error. There are many more drugs available as well as cosentyx, have a read of the prescribed treatments on the health boards.
I don’t know how your health system works in your country but I would suggest you get in touch with a dermatologist who should move you on to a systemic drug. But in the uk you need to fail on ointments like dermovate before they try you on something like Acetretin or methotrexate.  Before they will consider a biological drug like cosentyx

Good luck I hope you get into a drug that will work for you soon

Unfortunately where psoriasis is concerned asking what is the best treatment is like asking how long is a piece of sting?

There is no one fits all that comes off the peg as we are all different and what works for one may not work for another. So it's not really possible to answer your question but I agree with Jim you will probably need to fail an oral treatment before going on to cosentyx, unless you are paying for it yourself (which is very expensive)

I would say read up on this thread Oral Treatments For Psoriasis and see oif there is something you would like to try and then discuss it with your dermatologist. But the best treatment is the one that works for you and not what others suggest.

Good luck and welcome to Psoriasis Club.
