STELARA 90 mg solution for injection in pre-filled syringe
How It Works
STELARA contains ustekinumab, a monoclonal antibody that works by targeting and blocking specific proteins in the body called interleukin-12 (IL-12) and interleukin-23 (IL-23). These proteins play a key role in the inflammation process associated with immune-mediated diseases such as psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. By inhibiting IL-12 and IL-23, STELARA helps reduce inflammation and control symptoms of these conditions.
