@Fred,
I had severe plaque psoriasis. Within 2 months literally everything had cleared up.
It worked better than all expectations. 100% clear. This stayed like this for 10 months until i started seeing small symptoms again in January.
Prefilled or not, doesnt matter.
I was late in November and December. Since it's monthly its going to take atleast 3-4 of consistent use till i can say i've been consistent again.
I'm 100% committed to taking this as at exactly 30 day intervals.
I went to the dermatologist again and he suggested that "reloading" isn't necessary. Mainly getting back to the schedule and monitoring for a few months.
I was also given cortisone injections in some places where it was returning. This helps for now.
And lastly, I was also given Otezla to use supplementally to my Cosentyx.
I'm weary because of all the possible side effects. But i'm starting it on monday.
The dosing he recommended it also not as stated on the packaging, but "lighter" basically keeping it on 20mg per day for as long as possible and afterwards increasing to 30mg.
Current status, it's returned on my head, a few spots. my back, a few spots and my nails.
Compared to where i'm coming from, this is a walk in the park, and managable. But ofcourse the goal is always to try and get rid of it entirely.
Wondering is who else is using a biologic combined with another medication for plaque psoriasis and what they're experiences are.
