How often is monitoring needed after starting Cosentyx?

Doctors usually schedule check-ins at 12 weeks to review how the patient responds to treatment and look for early signs of infection or other issues. Patients who show good response and no complications then move to routine visits every 3 to 6 months.

Why is infection monitoring important?

Cosentyx weakens immune defenses against bacteria, fungi, and Candida, so doctors track white blood cell counts and any signs of active infection. Patients are advised to report fever, persistent cough, or unexplained weight loss right away.
