WHAT KYNTHEUM IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Kyntheum contains the active substance brodalumab. Brodalumab is a
monoclonal antibody, a
specialised type of protein that recognises and attaches to certain
proteins in the body.
Brodalumab belongs to a group of medicines called interleukin (IL)
inhibitors. This medicine works
by blocking the activity of IL-17 proteins, which are present at
increased levels in diseases such as
psoriasis.
Kyntheum is used to treat a skin condition called “plaque
psoriasis”, which causes inflammation and
scaly plaque formation on the skin. Kyntheum is used in adults with
moderate to severe plaque
psoriasis affecting large areas of the body.
Using Kyntheum will benefit you by leading to improvements of skin
clearance and reducing psoriasis
signs and symptoms, such as itch, redness, scaling, burning, stinging,
cracking, flaking and pain.
