Reducing Acitretin Medication - Thoughts?

[Wooley]

Well you have done better than I did on Acitretin. I would agree with you Dermy it can rebound with a vengeance given half a chance. I was lucky I had to stop straight away - no ramping off as my liver was starting to complain. Keep a close eye on it, we don't want you back on square one. Good luck on continued efficacy  

I sort of miss my peeling hands and feet, it gave me something to amuse myself with when I got bored.

Oh John -  I agree I have done really well on acitretin and I am totally mindful that it might come to bite me on the a**e (or hands and feet to be specific), if I am reducing the medication but I am really confused in general - so many people have said maybe it wasn't PPP, I just don't know.... I have questioned the derm but he says yes it was but to have absolutely no symptoms for over two years just by having PUVA for three months twice a week and then 10mg of acitretin daily I am at a loss.... But grateful at the same time.....

Maybe I just got a mild dose of PPP, who knows! Guess I will just have to see how it goes.....
