Experiences with

Stelara

. ( I’ve tried going private for T3 and/or T3/T4 combination but that meant long journeys and I never quite knew if I was doing the right thing as my GP wasn’t really with me on this and didn’t understand ) I have psoriasis and Psoriatic Arthritis and now quite recently Ulcerative Colitis having Stelara

I have ulcerative colitis with inflammation of the cecum that may be due to lupus or meds. Not really sure. I’m advised to take something similar to one of the drugs questioned to reduce inflammation. I have ckd 3b and don’t want to make it worse. Trying to determine which is better.

They are: Eliquis, Jardiance, Xarelto, Januvia, Farxiga, Entresto, Enbrel, Imbruvica, Stelara, and Fiasp and certain other insulins made by Novo Nordisk, including NovoLog.

blood thinner Januvia, a diabetes drug Jardiance, a diabetes drug Enbrel, a rheumatoid arthritis drug Imbruvica, a drug for blood cancers Farxiga, a drug for diabetes, heart failure and chronic kidney disease Entresto, a heart failure drug

Other drugs on the list include Amgen's (AMGN.O) rheumatoid arthritis drug Enbrel, Boehringer Ingelheim and Eli Lilly's (LLY.N) diabetes drug Jardiance, J&J's arthritis and Crohn's disease medicine Stelara and insulin from Novo Nordisk (NOVOb.CO).

I take 150mg levothyroxine, Stelara 90mg injection for crohns disease, Atorvastatin 20mg, Ramipril 2.5mg, Lercanidipine 20mg, Colesevelam 625mg and eyedrops for dry eyes. These medications are taken at different times from the thyroxine.

I take 150mg of levothyroxine for hypothyroidism and take stelara for my Crohn's.

I have tried 3 biologicals Cimzia, Humira and Stelara, while also taking 6MP on the Cimzia. The first 2 stopped helping me and the Stelara made me catch 4 viruses in a 5 week period. I am done with biologicals, besides i dont trust them and stress about cancer while on them.

I’m wondering if switching to stelara would be a good option? Although I do know that humira is most effective as a blanket for a lot of inflammatory diseases, and stelara is more aimed to deal with psoriatic arthritis and psoriasis, but it could be an option do discuss with your rheumatologist.

I am suppose to be deciding if I want to go on Stelara, Tremfya, Cosentyx, or the other two DMARDs. Has anyone tried any of these. I seem to always leave my appointment with regrets on not asking enough questions. It is an awful feeling and it keeps happening.

Patient responded well to interleukin inhibitor (anti IL-12, IL-23), ustekinumab (Stelara). It targets the two proteins IL-12 and IL-23, which are produced in the body to help fight infections by temporarily causing inflammation.

Just putting it out there if anyone has been on Venetoclax for their CLL and Stelara for Ulcerative Colitis at the sametime? Or can anyone recommend medication for Ulcerative Colitis while taking Venetoclax?

Then he was switched over to Stelara and his levels came down to about 5000 after 6 months. It went back to >6000 again and he is going to start Entyvio as soon as we get approval from the insurance. What I actually want to know is if there is anyone who had Calprotectin levels this high.

I’m on Stelara but the COVID vaccine rendered it basically useless. And I don’t have another shot for 2 months. So right now they are pumping me full of steroids and diuretics (I have full body edema right now). But he wants to go after this with a sledgehammer and add Leflunomide.

Anyone else on Stelara?

I’m taking Stelara (immune suppressant), but there’s no info on how the vaccine and biologics/DMARDS interact. Also, I only know 2 ppl in my age group (40-55) who *didn’t* get worse than expected side effects. Some of the stories are borderline bizarre.

IL-12/23 or IL-23 inhibitors include such therapies as Stelara, Tremfya, and Skyrizi; integrin inhibitors include Entyvio. The other good news was that combining therapies, such as taking methotrexate along with a TNF inhibitor, did not have an additional reduction on antibody levels.

Now she is switched to Stelara but it isn't working yet. Anyone else have joint pain with Crohn's or drug induced lupus?
