What is a Generic Drug?

A generic drug is a copy of the brand-name drug with the same dosage, safety, strength, quality, consumption method, performance, and intended use. Before generics become available on the market, the generic company must prove it has the same active ingredients as the brand-name drug and works in the same way and in the same amount of time in the body.

The only differences between generics and their brand-name counterparts is that generics are less expensive and may look slightly different (eg. different shape or color), as trademarks laws prevent a generic from looking exactly like the brand-name drug.

Generics are less expensive because generic manufacturers don't have to invest large sums of money to develop a drug. When the brand-name patent expires, generic companies can manufacture a copy of the brand-name and sell it at a substantial discount.

Description

Skyrizi is a prescription plaque psoriasis medication that is injected for moderate to severe case relief where the raised, scaly skin patches are more pronounced. It is often recommended when the patient is participating in light therapy for psoriasis or systemic therapy for plaque psoriasis. Prescription for treatment of psoriatic arthritis or for Crohn's disease is possible too. With any treatment application the active ingredient in Skyrizi medication - Risankizumab-Rzaa - functions as an antibody drug that binds to the IL23 inflammatory protein in the body and inhibits its activity. 

Directions

Skyrizi dosing typically is on a standard schedule where a single injection is given during the first week of your treatment plan, and with a 2nd injection then given after four weeks. After this 1st Skyrizi injection one is then given every 12 weeks (3 months).

Injection sites can be the front of your thighs (at the top part of your leg between the knee and hip) or the lower part of your abdomen is possible too but make sure the injection is at least 2 inches away from navel. Sitting in a chair when administering the injection is best.
