How it Works

Taltz, with the active ingredient ixekizumab, is a monoclonal antibody used in the treatment of autoimmune conditions such as psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis. Ixekizumab works by selectively targeting and neutralizing interleukin-17A (IL-17A), a pro-inflammatory cytokine involved in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases. By inhibiting IL-17A, ixekizumab reduces inflammation, keratinocyte hyperproliferation, and the associated symptoms of psoriasis and other autoimmune conditions.
