Nemluvio (nemolizumab-ilto) was indeed approved by the FDA for the treatment of prurigo nodularis. It's a biologic drug that targets IL-31, a protein involved in itching and inflammation. It's administered via subcutaneous injection every four weeks after an initial dose. Common side effects include headache and various forms of eczema. If you've just started, it's great to connect with others who are also using it to share experiences and support.

Hi Cindy ~ I have started Nemluvio on 04OCT24. It's still too early to say, but it does show promise in the electric feeling or zinging, for me.
The great side is that the injections do not hurt at all! Dupixent felt like an ice pick chopping into tissue. Nemluvio I keep checking afterwards to see if it did indeed inject into body, as there is no pain at all injecting.
