Cosentyx And Liver Disease

I have NAFLD and have been told I need a liver transplant but the infliximab I am using at the moment isn't working and I am in constant pain in my shoulders, hands, knees and feet as well as pain in my ribs due to my liver and enlarged spleen.

Have been told I can use this but am a bit sceptical about this after reading forums and would appreciate any feedback.

I didn't see any warnings about it causing problems with liver disease, or being contraindicated, but it is always best to seek the opinion of another doctor, if you aren't sure.

The NIH lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, muscle aches, cough, and weight loss.

Is this the only medication you will be taking?
