Copellor 80mg Injection 1 ml is used to treat plaque psoriasis, plaque arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis. These are chronic autoimmune conditions that involve inflammation, where the immune system mistakenly attacks healthy tissues, which leads to symptoms like skin lesions, joint pain, and stiffness. Copellor 80mg Injection 1 ml works by blocking interleukin-17A (IL-17A), a cytokine that plays a key role in the inflammatory process. Inhibiting this cytokine helps reduce the inflammation and rapid skin cell regeneration associated with the condition, leading to symptom improvement. In some cases, this medicine may cause side effects such as diarrhoea (with or without blood), nausea, abdominal pain, red, itchy, or watery eyes, stuffy or runny nose, redness or pain at the injection site, and weight loss.
