It started working right away--red areas became paler--but I think I'm allergic to the cleaning agents at the hospital where I work. My psoriasis gets better over the weekend and starts right back up about 8 hours into my shift on Mondays. So no, I'm 2 weeks away from my 4th shot and I'm only minimally better, even with adding Protopic ointment on days that I work. Part of the problem is that I'm zinc deficient but my skin doesn't tolerate it at all--even eating oysters or pumpkin seeds makes the psoriasis worse, and high zinc levels is the only commonality between those foods.
