I have been on this biologic for four months. I am experiencing a very swollen tummy with intermittent pain. I have been diagnosed with diverticulitis many years ago but haven’t really had any problems with this. I was wondering if anyone else who takes this drug has experienced the same problems ?

Ixekizumab (Taltz) seems to be quite new as a treatment for psoriasis. They will be looking for reports of any problems, so I assume you are being followed up closely? Please let your medical team know.

Like all new drugs they can work well for your body or not. My rheummy told me to ring nurse practitioner anytime I was worried and if necessary she/he would get them to ring consultant. They are used to questions even daft ones and would rather hear you than you suffer. So ring up it could be something simple to ease your discomfort 🌈
