Not sure where I'd go from here if this medication isn't going to work. I really don't want to try acitretin as I haven't heard good things about it (both in terms of side effects and how well it actually works), was told I wasn't suitable for methotrexate (again not sure I would want to take it anyway) and Cyclosporin seems completely pointless from everything I've read about it - works well on psoriasis but starts to damage your liver etc after a short time and has to be stopped. I mean are there any cases of someone being on this drug long term?
What options are left? I know there is the next step up to the biologics and injections but don't you have to have tried and failed on atleast 2 or 3 of the previously mentioned options first before you'll even be considered?
