Cosentyx

So side effects come with all these meds...my Rheum had me double my folate and add Vit.A now having been on anti tnf Humira and getting more gum problems..Ian now on anti Il23 Taltz as the Humira stopped working after 6 months I have Ankylosing Spondylitis with PsA so it’s a bit more complicated...I hope the Cosyntix works out for you!

Hi Rich. I have been on Consentyx for five months first 3 monthd 150mg no effect then upped to 300mg and in the last month i have at last started to feel great my joints do not hurt so bad and i had psa everywhere I'm starting to feel normal again! Well as normal as can be! I was on enbrell biological for 10 years but my body became immune to it!! I was also in the past on that nasty methotrexate horrible drug. Anyway hope this drug works for you. Regards Gee

Hi Rich

Methotrexate though week proven as a wonderful drug for many led to methotrexate induced hepatitis for me. Powerful meds, we take. I hope return to Cosentyx works again for you. I was so excited about starting it last June for the reasons you mention, about it targeting different things. Sadly, 8th treatment to fail. Back on corticosteroid injections, infusions plus daily oral pred. Bloodwork all over the place, folates, lymphocytes etc low sore MORE medication. Trying hard to help myself dietary, exercise, rest etc. But the overwhelming fatigue leads me to the choc box rather than the salad box. Good luck & I'd welcome any tips where to find the Miracle Tree! Sheila

I had plaque psoriasis for 25 years. Just before I found a cure I talked to my doctor about Cosentyx. He stated that because it's a biologic it's very hard on the body and did not recommend it since I only had p on my head arms and legs. Again as I said in my earlier posting "Psoriasis Cure" I used Psoriasin in the 4 oz jar to cure my p. My doctor is still at a loss to explain it as my skin is 100% psoriasis free for over a year now. Good luck and stay away from any biologic!!!!

psoriasin has coal tar in it ... for years coal tar has always been a good stand by for managing p. i use it on hands palms arms legs . its a good way to manage p. in my case. everyone is different what helps one individual may not be the fix for another.

of course p is a autoimmune disease thus bio drugs are designed to shut down the il16-27 pathway. which in turn can make the patient vulnerable to other illness due to a weakened immune system there is not any cure for p but many ways to manage it.
