Interesting, I take risankizumab, which looks like it indirectly suppresses IL-17 (through suppressing IL-23A). I've been on it for a bit less than a year, and I can't say if I've had improved mood. Maybe? It definitely fixed the psoriasis. Might also have contributed to me getting sick more often, though.
I wish I had kept logs with some sort of self-screen depression instrument now (maybe the BDI? I don't like the PHQ-9). Might as well start now.
Recent risankizumab convert here :) Definitely happier now than I was before starting, but I'm sure some of that comes from the Crohn's not ruling my entire life anymore, lol. [knocks furiously on wood]
But I didn't know about the indirect IL-17 suppression. That's interesting!
