Taltz works by reducing inflammation which helps improve the symptoms of these conditions.
Taltz contains the active ingredient ixekizumab which acts by binding and neutralizing a naturally occurring protein that is involved in inflammation.
When Taltz binds to the protein, inflammation is reduced, and this improves symptoms of plaque psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis.
Taltz is a liquid injected under the skin using a prefilled syringe or a prefilled autoinjector. You may be shown how to use injections at home.
Do not give yourself this medicine if you do not understand how to use the injection.
Common Taltz side effects may include nausea, ear infection, cold symptoms such as stuffy nose, sneezing, sore throat, and also pain or redness where the medicine was injected.

I have severe plaque psoriasis everywhere! And I was on Embral years ago and that worked wonders.
But now as of Thursday I will be doing this injection.
I hope it's as good as Embral 🙏
