Product Description

Usteki-numab injection

Usteki-numabis a human monoclonal antibody typically used to treat moderate to severe plaque psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, moderate to severe Crohn disease, or moderate to severe ulcerative colitis (inflammatory bowel disease).\

What is Usteki-numabinjection?

Usteki-numabis a drug that reduces the signs and symptoms of active psoriatic arthritis, such as psoriasis and joint swelling. It is also approved for the treatment of plaque psoriasis and moderate to severe, active Crohn's disease. Ustekinumab is commonly known as Stelara®.

What are the benefits of Usteki-numab?

Scientists think they are important in the inflammation that happens in your gut when you have Crohn's or Colitis. Usteki-numabworks by blocking the effects of IL-12 and IL-23. This reduces inflammation. But, like many other treatments for Crohn's and Colitis, it also alters your immune system.

 

How quickly does Usteki-numabwork?

Everyone responds differently when taking a new medicine, and Usteki-numabdoesn't work for everyone. You may feel better as early as three weeks after taking Usteki-numab, but most people who respond to ustekinumab start feeling better within six weeks. In some people it could take longer.

 

Can Usteki-numabcause hair loss?

Hair loss was not a side effect of Stelara in clinical studies. However, hair loss could be a symptom of plaque psoriasis, which Stelara is used to treat. Additionally, hair loss can be a side effect of methotrexate. This drug may be used in combination with Stelara to treat psoriatic arthritis.

 

What foods should you avoid while taking Usteki-numab?

There are no specific foods that need to be avoided while taking Usteki-numab. However, it is important to maintain a healthy diet and avoid alcohol consumption.

Is STELARA a steroid?

No. Usteki-numab^® is not a steroid. Usteki-numab^® targets an underlying cause of plaque psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis—an overactive immune system. It blocks the action of IL-12 and IL-23, two proteins that may play a role in plaque psoriasis and active psoriatic arthritis.

 

Can Usteki-numabbe given monthly?

Usteki-numab is a 45 mg or 90 mg injection given under the skin, as directed by your doctor. To start, you'll get doses at weeks 0, 4, and then every 12 weeks after that. Your doctor can administer it, or you (or a caregiver) can inject at your home after proper training.

 

How long is Usteki-numabgood for?

If needed, you may store Usteki-numab pre-filled syringes at room temperature up to 30°C for one period of up to 30 days. Write the date on the carton, when removed from the refrigerator. If pre-filled syringe has reached room temperature, do not put it back in the refrigerator.

 

 SIDE EFFECTS OF Usteki-numab

• ·         allergic reactions like skin rash, itching or hives, swelling of the face, lips, or tongue.
• ·         breathing problems.
• ·         changes in vision.
• ·         confusion.
• ·         headache.
