[split] Dimethylfumarates and Psoriasis

[Caroline]

Thanks, Caroline.

The theory is all fun, but I tend to put more trust into what I observe. Some research I read recently suggested that DMF could bind with several cysteine residue sites on t cells. Good to read that Dr Schweickendiek had looked at cysteine. It really does seem to make my DMF doses far easier to stomach (as does washing it down with skim milk), and I suspect that it might offer some protection for the liver and kidney, at least in the early stages of treatment. There are now several reports of liver toxicity with Tecfidera, so I am curious so see how things are managed.

Cheers,

Bill

It's no theory Bill.

Liver toxicity with Tecfidera??? How did they manage to do that?
Should it have something to do with their process of production of DMF?

Cheers,
