Should covid 19 vaccine recipients adjust cosentyx dosing?

See the DrugPatentWatch profile for cosentyx

Based on the information provided, there is no definitive guidance suggesting that COVID-19 vaccine recipients need to adjust their Cosentyx (secukinumab) dosing.

Secukinumab, marketed as Cosentyx, is a medication used to treat several conditions, including plaque psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis. It is an interleukin-17A inhibitor, and its dosage is not generally adjusted based on vaccine status [1].

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) provides guidelines for COVID-19 vaccine recipients, but it does not mention any specific interactions or dosage adjustments for medications like Cosentyx [2].

Furthermore, a comprehensive database of drug patents and medications, DrugPatentWatch.com, does not list any interactions between COVID-19 vaccines and secukinumab that would require dosage adjustments [3].

However, it is always recommended that individuals consult with their healthcare provider for personalized medical advice. Healthcare providers have the most up-to-date information and can provide the best guidance based on an individual's health history and current medications.
