Tralokinumab, sold under the brand names Adtralza and Adbry, is a medication used to treat atopic dermatitis.[4] Specifically it is used for moderate to severe disease which is not controlled by medication applied to the skin.[2][3] It is given by injection under the skin.[3]
Common side effects include upper respiratory tract infections such as the common cold, reactions at the injection site, and eye pain and redness.[4] Other side effects may include anaphylaxis and angioedema.[5] While there is no evidence of harm in pregnancy, such use has not been well studied.[5] It is a monoclonal antibody which blacks the activity of cytokine interleukin 13.[4][6]
Tralokinumab was approved for medical use in Europe, the United States, and the United Kingdom in 2021.[2][4][3] In the United Kingdom it costs the NHS about £1070 for 600 mg as of 2022.[7] This amount in the United States costs about 3,300 USD.[8]
