WHAT FRAIZERON
®
IS USED FOR
Fraizeron contains the active substance
secukinumab. Secukinumab is a fully-human
monoclonal antibody. Monoclonal antibodies
are proteins that recognise and bind specifically
to certain proteins in the body.
It belongs to a group of medicines called
interleukin (IL) inhibitors. This medicine works
by neutralizing the activity of a protein called
IL-17A, which is present at increased levels in
diseases such as psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis and
axial spondyloarthritis (ankylosing spondylitis
and non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis).
Fraizeron is used for the treatment of the
following inflammatory diseases:
_Plaque psoriasis _
Fraizeron is used to treat a skin condition called
‘plaque psoriasis’. Plaque psoriasis causes
inflammation affecting the skin. Fraizeron will
reduce the inflammation and other symptoms of
the disease.
Fraizeron is used in patients 6 years and older
with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis.
_Psoriatic arthritis _
Fraizeron is used to treat a condition called
‘psoriatic arthritis’. The condition is an
inflammatory disease of the joints, often
accompanied by psoriasis. Fraizeron is given to
you to reduce the signs and symptoms of active
psoriatic arthritis, improve physical function
and slow down the damage to the cartilage and
the bone of the joints involved in the disease.
Fraizeron is used in adults with active psoriatic
arthritis and can be used alone or with another
medicine called methotrexate.
_Axial spondyloarthritis, including ankylosing _
_spondylitis (axial spondyloarthritis with _
_radiogra
