How Taltz Works
In people with psoriasis or arthritis, the immune system mistakenly attacks healthy cells. While different parts of this system participate in these diseases, a protein named interleukin-17 A is involved in a specific process, which signals the immunity to attack joint and skin cells. Taltz contains monoclonal antibodies that can attach to these proteins and prevent them from working. As a result, the immune system will stop attacking healthy body cells. Therefore, taking Taltz can help relieve certain symptoms, such as skin plaques and swelling. [2]
