Cosentyx
The newest injectable treatment for moderate to severe psoriasis, Cosentyx, works through a novel pathway and appears more effective than its competitors. It quiets the inflammation necessary for skin and joint manifestations of psoriasis. After an initial intensive regimen, a single, monthly, self-administered injection appears sufficient. However at a cost of about $4400 per dose, Cosentyx ranks as the most expensive biologic for psoriasis. Alternative drugs in the same family appear to increase suicide risk. Whether the same will plague Cosentyx remains unknown.

Thank you! Super helpful and I appreciate posting this.
Thank you for your video it had helped me learn about the injection and how to use it
Looks like it stops working for most within a year
I wasn’t given the loading doses, is that normal
Why mention suicide and all this gloomy info when cosentex doesn’t cause such side effects? Afterall this segment was about cosentex and not other biologics. I don’t get it.
