§Administered subcutaneously (under your skin). 
||All results shown in clinical trials using subcutaneous (SC) administration (injection under the skin). The FDA approval of the intravenous (IV) administration (injected into a vein) of COSENTYX is based on data showing that the amount of the medication in your body after it is given directly through IV was within the range that would be seen when given as SC.

COSENTYX works fast for results that can last

3 WEEKS

COSENTYX can start working in as little as 3 weeks.

In a clinical trial of patients with psoriatic arthritis, about 60% of patients taking COSENTYX 150 mg or 300 mg (versus 18% of patients taking placebo) saw at least a 20% improvement in psoriatic arthritis symptoms at 16 weeks. 

6 months

Relief you can see.

On X-rays, 77% of people taking COSENTYX had no further joint damage at 6 months.

300 mg in a clinical trial, 71% taking 150 mg, and 68% not taking COSENTYX (placebo).

2 years 

Sustained relief.

84% of people with psoriatic arthritis taking COSENTYX experienced no further joint damage at the 2 year mark.#,**

#Everyone's experience is different. These results were from a less rigorous analysis, so it is not known if symptom improvement was due to COSENTYX.
**At 2 years, 71% of patients taking COSENTYX 150 mg and 84% of patients taking COSENTYX 300 mg had no further joint damage.

5 YEARS

COSENTYX has been proven to last.

For adults who continued on COSENTYX for 5 years, a similar percentage saw an improvement in PsA symptoms. In this study, the medication being used was revealed to doctors and adults after 1 year, which may affect the results.

Daily activities feel better with COSENTYX

At 16 weeks, adults in clinical trials completed a questionnaire that asked how difficult it was to complete daily activities. On average at 16 weeks, adults taking COSENTYX showed overall improvement in their ability to perform daily activities. The questions covered categories such as:

Images of seven daily activities that adults with PsA showed improvement in taking Cosentyx. Getting in and out of bed, getting dressed, using hands to eat, reaching, gripping objects, walking, taking care of personal hygiene.
