Read this prospect thoroughly before starting to use this medicine, because

it contains important information for you.

• Keep this prospect, as you may need to read it again.
• If you have any doubts, consult your doctor, pharmacist or nurse.
• This medicine has been prescribed to you alone, and you must not give it to other people even if they have the same symptoms as you, as it may harm them.

Tremfya contains the active ingredient guselkumab, which is a type of protein called monoclonal antibody.

This medication acts by blocking the activity of a protein called IL-23,which is present in greater quantities in people with psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis.

Plaque psoriasis

Tremfya is used to treat adults with “plaque psoriasis” of moderate to severe, an inflammatory disorder that affects the skin and nails.

Tremfya can improve skin disorders and the appearance of nails and reduce symptoms, such as scaling, shedding, exfoliation, itching, pain, and burning.

Psiatic arthritis

Tremfya is used to treat a disease called “psoriatic arthritis”, an inflammatory joint disease, often accompanied by psoriasis. If you have psoriatic arthritis, you will be given other medications first. If you do not respond well enough to these medications, you will be given Tremfya to reduce the signs and symptoms of your disease. Tremfya can be used alone or with another medication called methotrexate.

The use of Tremfya in psoriatic arthritis will benefit you by reducing the signs and symptoms of the disease, slowing down the damage to the cartilage and bone of the joints, and improving your ability to perform normal daily activities.

No use Tremfya

• If you are allergic to guselkumab or any of the other components of this medication

(see section 6). If you think you may be allergic, consult your doctor before using Tremfya

• If you have an active infection, including active tuberculosis

Warnings and precautions

Consult your doctor, pharmacist or nurse before using Tremfya:

• If you are receiving treatment for an infection

• If you have a persistent or recurring infection
• If you have tuberculosis or have had close contact with someone with tuberculosis
• If you think you may have an infection or symptoms of an infection (see below “Infection and allergic reaction monitoring”)
• If you have recently been vaccinated or need to receive a vaccine during treatment with Tremfya.

If you are unsure whether any of the above conditions apply to you, speak with your doctor, pharmacist or nurse before using Tremfya.

Following your doctor's instructions, before receiving Tremfya and when you are going to use it, you may need to have blood tests to check if you have elevated liver enzyme levels. Elevated liver enzyme levels may be more frequent in patients who receive Tremfya every 4weeks than in those who receive Tremfya every 8weeks (see “How to use Tremfya” in section 3).

Infection and allergic reaction monitoring

Tremfya has the potential to produce severe adverse reactions, including allergic reactions and infections. You must monitor the appearance of signs of these disorders while receiving Tremfya.

Stop using Tremfya and consult your doctor or seek medical help immediately if you observe

any sign that indicates a possible severe allergic reaction or infection.

The signs of infection may include fever or flu-like symptoms; muscle pain; cough; difficulty breathing; burning sensation while urinating or urinating more frequently than usual; blood in mucus (phlegm); weight loss; diarrhea or stomach pain; hot, red, or painful skin, or sores on the body that are different from psoriasis lesions.

Severe allergic reactions with Tremfya have occurred, which may include the following symptoms,swelling of the face, lips, mouth, tongue, or throat, difficulty swallowing or breathing, and hives (see “Severe adverse reactions” in section4).
