See the DrugPatentWatch profile for cosentyx

Based on the information provided, it appears you are inquiring about modifications to vaccine schedules for individuals taking Cosentyx (secukinumab). Cosentyx is a medication used to treat various conditions such as plaque psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis [1].

According to the Cosentyx prescribing information, there are no specific modifications required for vaccine schedules [2]. However, it is essential to consider that immunosuppressive therapies like Cosentyx may affect patients' immune responses to vaccines [3]. Therefore, it is recommended to administer any necessary vaccines before starting Cosentyx or, if not possible, to consider the risks and benefits of vaccination during treatment [2].

It is always best to consult with a healthcare professional regarding specific vaccine recommendations and schedules while on Cosentyx. They can provide personalized advice based on the patient's medical history and current treatment plan.
