Confirmed in an article over here, people on certain immunosuppressants have a lover response on the vaccine.
Specifically methotrexate and rituximab are being mentioned. Sources are several research publications in a.o. the US.
A researcher says: “We believe that the underlying chronic immune stimulation in autoimmune patients may lead to T-cell depletion and thus an attenuation of the immune response. In addition, specific drugs, such as methotrexate, can interfere with the immune response.“
Now psoriasis is no typical auto immune disease, but it it treated with the same kind of medications.
