Is Cosentyx an IL-23 inhibitor?

While Cosentyx inhibits IL-17A to treat psoriasis and other autoimmune diseases, mirikizumab blocks a different interleukin, IL-23.

What category is Cosentyx?

Secukinumab is a drug that reduces the signs and symptoms of psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and psoriasis. Secukinumab is commonly known as Cosentyx®. It is a type of drug called a biologic.

What kind of inhibitor is Taltz?

Ixekizumab, sold under the brand name Taltz, is an injectable medication for the treatment of autoimmune diseases. Chemically, it is a form of a humanized monoclonal antibody. The substance acts by binding interleukin 17A and neutralizing it, reducing inflammation.

What does IL-17 do in psoriasis?
