There is currently no definitive scientific evidence to suggest that the timing of vaccinations impacts the efficacy of Cosentyx (secukinumab), an FDA-approved medication used to treat several conditions including plaque psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis [1].
However, it is generally recommended that patients consult with their healthcare provider or pharmacist regarding the timing of any vaccinations, especially if they are currently taking any prescription medications, as certain vaccines may not be recommended for individuals on specific drug therapies [2].
It is important to note that Cosentyx, like many biologic medications, may affect the immune system, and patients should discuss with their healthcare provider the risks and benefits of receiving live vaccines while taking Cosentyx [3].
In summary, while there is no evidence to suggest that vaccine timing impacts Cosentyx's efficacy, patients should consult with their healthcare provider regarding the timing of any vaccinations while taking Cosentyx.
